There are two ways to do a search box. You lucked out and chose the more difficult method, putting it in the skin. I know the default skin used to do this, so you're in good company. The easier way is to use the (:searchbox:) directive in a page such as Site.PageActions or Site.SideBar. You can use parameters to prevent them from searching the documentation pages. In my CMS system, I put the following in the sidebar. The first one is seen by visitors and does not search the documentation or the Site pages. The second one is only seen if you log in with edit privileges. (:searchbox group=-PmWiki,-Site size=15 label=Search:) (:if auth admin:) (:searchbox size=15 label=DocSearch:) BTW, searchbox is now related to pagelist. Very flexible and powerful directive! Cheers!
