CKS:Enhanced Blog Edition - Enable Search

The other day I started coding a custom searchfunctionality to use with the Community Kit for SharePoint's Enhanced Blog Edition (CKS:EBE) - which is what this blog is running on.

However, while it would be fun and all to create a new custom search functionality for the EBE - someone beat me to it.

Daniel over at ZevenSeas has posted a blogpost on the subject and explains what the searchbox can do.

You can download the project on codeplex here.

Screenshots of the searchbox in use with the EBE:

Hope that you can find some good use for this searchbox, it's working really good to be honest. Good work Daniel.

Some more customizations are to be done, then I'm set for tonight and will shortly begin my Silverlight 1.0 integration blogpost which I've postponed for too long now.

Cheers

Hi Tobias, glad to see more and more people use CKS:EBE. Looks very professional and the search works good. Note however: You might want to do something about the search results page and the layout of the results there.. Too "standard" to fit with this theme :)

not taking the search into consideration i really like the ebe kit and you've done a good job implementing it and its running smoothly. keep the work up and give us more of the good tutorials you write! ;) see you
