Can't find the thing you need? You've looked almost anywhere in the community? Try this one: Umbraco Community Search (provided by Google Co-op search) ... try it out. If you find any ressources missing - add them. Kindly Jesper

The "very-quickly-compiled-with-many-missing" list: http://www.cpalm.dk/ http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Umbraco http://www.rtk-cv.dk/projects/umbraco.aspx http://umbraco.bruunebonen.com http://hartvig.com http://www.darren-ferguson.com http://weblog.151278.org http://www.cpalm.dk http://ismail.umbraco.net http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/umbraco/ http://www.umbraco.org http://forum.umbraco.org http://kasperb.dk http://objects.dk http://www.fab-it.dk http://www.squidoo.com/umbraco The "Google Co-op" way is to apply as a volunteer - and then I'm supposed to accept the request - which of cause I will :thumbup:. You need a google account. If you don't want to do all that - just reply in this forum and I'll add/remove your site. Kindly, Jesper

Good list. Maybe a few other sites to add, if you think them appropriate... codegarden.umbraco.org umbracostats.umbraco.org (maybe just *.umbraco.org ?) www.hagermark.seumbraco.psyhost.net www.090978.orgwww.neehouse.comStuff for XML/XSLT since that is common area for questions (maybe w3.org)? cheers, doug.

Ooops, w3.org is huge (9+ million pages). It is overwhelming the rest of the sites. How about replacing it with "www.w3schools.com/xsl" (which is what I was thinking even though I typed w3.org)? Also, is there a way to specify the "more important" and mark w3schools as "less important" in the search results? That way Umbraco-specific sites get returned first and generic sites come later. cheers, doug.

Add the Umbraco Community Search to your browser's search engine/search provider list! Go to www.percipientstudios.com/downloads/umbraco/UmbracoCommunitySearch.htm and follow the instructions on the screen. This works with Firefox2 and IE7 using OpenSearch technology and Firefox features. Using the code below the search will be auto-discovered by the browser. @Niels and Daniel B[b] I think this should be added to every page on the forum! Then people can search ALL umbraco resources at once --the forums (new and old), various blogs, etc-- and have the full Google search syntax available. Finally, AND, OR, NOT, parenthesis, phrases, the works! You could even add search hints/auto-completion for Firefox (see http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Creating_OpenSearch_plugins_for_Firefox)! Add it to the Mac's Sherlock, or automatically install the search engine through a simple JavaScript call to the Firefox DOM (see http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Adding_search_engines_from_web_pages)! The potential is amazing and the effort is minimal.
[b]How to make Umbraco Community Search available from your own site/blogCreate the following files somewhere on the server (I'm assuming they go in the root): - UmbracoCommunitySearch.xml (works for both IE7 and FF2 users) - UmbracoCommunitySearchFF.xml (optional, extra features for Firefox users only) Add the following to the <head> section of the web pages (changing the URL as appropriate): Code:
<link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml" title="Umbraco Community Search (Firefox only)" href="http://forum.umbraco.org/UmbracoCommunitySearchFF.xml">
<link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml" title="Umbraco Community Search" href="http://forum.umbraco.org/UmbracoCommunitySearch.xml">
cheers, doug.

Jesper,
Just want to say THANKS for setting that up. I think that should be the top link on any Umbraco information page. Very very cool.:thumbup:

Using the Community Search recently it seems it does not index all forum discussions. Is this correct or am I doing something wrong? An example: Remembering the thread http://forum.umbraco.org/installing/v2-versus-v3-page-load-timesI tried to find it using the Community Search. I could not find it searching for "load times". However, searching on google.com for "load times" site:forum.umbraco.org it is listed at the very top of the results.
Is it me or umbraco? Umbraco Certified Professional Level 2.

I suspect that it's because Coop search (Community Search) doesnt cache pages as long as www.google.com ... at least something like that. The reason why this becomes a problem is that you can't navigate to older pages in the Forum. So - once the forum entry falls out of the list of entries .. it's will vanish at some point. If this is the problem then adding some navigation to older posts could solve it. Would be nice anyway. Kindly, Jesper
