Hi,
Would someone be able to post a tutorial on how to use the search control from the "umbraco Extensions" project in codeplex? I can't find any information on getting this running. The solution that I download from codeplex doesn't compile.
Thanks

I've had no problem compiling an earlier version under VS2005/.NET 2.0, though I needed to pick up a few dependencies from other projects first. It took a while to get everything. It would be nice if someone would compile the current version and post it on codeplex.

Another option, if you just need a flexible search engine for your site of <1000 nodes, is XSLTsearch. It is fully documented and available at http://umbraco.percipientstudios.com/xsltsearch.aspx

If you need more help with the lucene search, please give us more details about what you've tried and what fails.

cheers,
doug.

The problem has to do with where the lucene search loads the XSLT extensions in the code. The method that is called was changed in a 2.1 version, and creates an error due to the method type.

Simply finding that method call and duplicating the code from the method into the search code will solve your problem.
