[SOLVED] CB Profile Search on Home page was created by butchtones
Hello,
Could you please tell me if I can put the CB profile search on the home page of my site? If so, how would I do that?

thanks so much!

Put a userlist on your homepage? You should be able to just create a userlist from CB > Userlist Management then add a Joomla menu link to it and mark it as Home.

I don't want a user list on my home page. I'd like a search box that when I enter information it will bring me to the cb user list with the matching information.

For example, I want to locate someone in Spain

Steps:
From a search box on my home page I enter Spain
That would redirect me to the CB user list page with the matching results.

Thanks for your fast response!

CB has no such a thing. The closest you can get is using our CB Search Bot, which allows searching CB users with Joomlas search. This won't take you to a userlist though.

That's too bad. It appears that I can have it open in a new window? (see image)

So, I've got the search bot plugin enabled and set the criteria to search.
I've tried two modules on the home page.
1. Search
2. Smart Search

I've got them both on my home page for testing. Neither pull CB data.

Help!

Click "Search" while editing the plugin and specify fields for it to search on. Those fields need to be visible to the user searching. So if you're not logged in, you need to be able to see that field for you to search it. It also needs to be set searchable within field management.
