New Site Search

A number of visitors have suggested we implement an improved search system for the Knowledge Base and Manual. This project is now complete and we have a new unified site search that searches over the KB, manual, blog, and the site as a whole (check out the search link on the top right-hand corner of the home page). The search is AJAX based and works by overlaying the existing page – no pop-ups, or losing your position on the site. For the technical people interested, it’s driven by Google Custom Search.

We have a rapidly growing KB and we hope this will help PaperCut users find answers they’re after. Please give it a test run and let us know if you have any comments/suggestions.

    Just an update. Tom has also just fixed up the Open Search configuration (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSearch) so it now works with the new site search.
