I had a member of my archive request a search option. I've seen a few e-fiction sites that have this feature but I can't seem to find the mod code for it anywhere. I did a quick search here but no dice. If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated!

It's built into the script. Just add /search.php to the end of your site's path. Sounds like it's not in your menu or anything like that, you'll want to add it.

Well would you look at that haha. Thanks!

How do I add the link? Would that be in the Skin files?

depending on how your skin is set up, it will either be in header.tpl, likely listed as an unordered list or in variables.php

if it is a list item something like this

<li>{home}</li>
<li>{login}</li>
<li>{adminarea}</li>
<li>{logout}</li>

just add 

<li>{search}</li>

where ever you want to place it

if it is in varialbes... look smt like this:

 "content" => array (
                0 => 'authors',
                1 => 'titles',
                2 => 'search',

why is nothing ever easy?
