How to customize search results

Fri, 08/24/2007 - 14:39 — farnaz

I've done some looking around and couldn't find an answer for this, so I was hoping someone in the community did.

I have disabled the "Display post information" for both pages and stories, but the name of the user who posted the node is still displayed in search results.

How can I turn this off?

hi,
You can add this code to your theme's Template.php file. Just replace the THEME-NAME with your own theme name.

<?php
function THEME-NAME_search_item($item, $type) {
  $output = ' <dt class="title"><a href="'. check_url($item['link']) .'">'. check_plain($item['title']) .'</a></dt>';
  $info = array();
  $output .= ' <dd>'. ($item['snippet'] ? '<p>'. $item['snippet'] .'</p>' : '') .'<p class="search-info">'. implode(' - ', $info) .'</p></dd>';
  return $output;
}
?>

Actually this theme function overrides the search result function in search.module.

here is the original code, you can leave some items like date or ...

<?php
function THEME-NAME_search_item($item, $type) {
  $output = ' <dt class="title"><a href="'. check_url($item['link']) .'">'. check_plain($item['title']) .'</a></dt>';
  $info = array();
  if ($item['type']) {
    $info[] = check_plain($item['type']);
  }
  if ($item['user']) {
    $info[] = $item['user'];
  }
  if ($item['date']) {
    $info[] = format_date($item['date'], 'small');
  }
  if (is_array($item['extra'])) {
    $info = array_merge($info, $item['extra']);
  }
  $output .= ' <dd>'. ($item['snippet'] ? '<p>'. $item['snippet'] .'</p>' : '') .'<p class="search-info">'. implode(' - ', $info) .'</p></dd>';
  return $output;
}
?>
