Hot damn, search thread! Who rocks more than ita? That would be no one.
Mal: You tell me right now, little Kaylee, you really think you can do this? Kaylee: Sure. Yeah. I think so. 'Sides, if I mess up, not like you'll be able to yell at me.

Lovely, excellent search engine!
(I still think there shouldn't be main-page links to the search page until it can only be used by logged-in users.)

I agree Lizard. I'm thinking we can add a link in the left column right below "View bookmarks."
ita - do you want me to try and code this in the test main_left?
Also, I'd suggest making search.php only disply the search form if the user is registered and logged in.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I can go either way, but I'mokay with this.
Also, while I'm thinking about it, I wanted to bring up putting a direct link on the main page to the cafe press store, if at all possible. Still not a priority but it might kick up a bit of extra cash.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jon, I've got it in the LH column already on the test site, so there's no need. I just don't want to have the search page all out there until I've coded paging through the results. Too big a hit on the server as is.

I don't think we're going to need to spend any money for another year or so, anyway -- assuming we're not at risk for extra bandwidth charges? And we've got a bunch of money in the bank. All I'm saying is, there's no press to raise more money at the moment. Unless there's somthing I'm not thinking of.

Checking test site....
So you do!
What about this:
I'd suggest making search.php only disply the search form if the user is registered and logged in.

Already done, Jon. You'll note it's in the section that you only see if you're logged in.

I mean that the search.php page itself should have code in it so that it only displays the search form if you're logged in. If you're not logged in, search.php would just display a message like "You must be registered and logged in to use this page."

Ah. Yes. Well, the search page is being rewritten, as you can see if you use it, so nothing there is done.
