In few words, guys honestly, what doesn't work? With screenshots. Thanks. What are you talking about? I posted a screenshot above showing the problem... :-/ You said you were going to take a look at this issue, but I am still waiting. It is NOT showing the correct results when diacritic characters are used, and at the moment we have your plugin disabled.
February 20, 20177 yr Hallo @DawPi - did you look at the issue we have mentioned? I did install your plugin on a testboard today so if you like to test yourselve it is possible to check out the error as described

April 4, 20177 yr No issue here, I'm considering a purchase for my site, I just thought there might be a bug fix release soon Does this add a 'Google' option to the search menu, or does it actually replace the 'All Content' search? Edited April 4, 20177 yr by crmarks
April 4, 20177 yr Author It has been fixed. Gabriel didn't imported newest version. 'All Content' replace.
April 4, 20177 yr Would it be possible to create an optional toggle to add Google as another search option, instead of replacing All Content? I am not sure if I want a full search replacement for all users, or simply the option for users to choose Google. screen_2.png in the marketplace download seems to imply this behavior. Also, is it best to upgrade the plugin, or remove and reinstall during version updates? Edited April 4, 20177 yr by crmarks
April 4, 20177 yr Hi @DawPi! I've been trying out the plugin today and noticed an issue with CSE customization. Many of the Google CSE Look and feel settings are hard coded into the javascript inside the plugin, so changing the theme and style settings in the CSE control panel have no effect on the live site. This also effects the ability to set a custom link target (mine is set to "_self" but it is forced to open results in a new window) Is there a way to update the plugin javascript code so our CSE customizations are passed through? These aren't things that can be changed via CSS, they can only be set from the CSE admin panel and passed through their latest javascript. The latest CSE javascript code is async and supports a lot of HTML5 customization. It may be possible to present the CSE results in a way that looks more like the native IPS search interface, if the results template was further developed with these new features. https://developers.google.com/custom-search/docs/element.

April 5, 20177 yr Author Hello, Ill check it in the next release. It works how it looks on the screenshots however.
April 12, 20177 yr Google has announced it is discontinuing Site Search. Any idea if there will be a replacement product?

April 13, 20177 yr @crmarks is correct. CSE will continue to exist: http://fortune.com/2017/02/21/google-site-search-discontinued/
April 13, 20177 yr 4 minutes ago, Gabriel Torres said: @crmarks is correct. CSE will continue to exist: http://fortune.com/2017/02/21/google-site-search-discontinued/ So, there's no need for us to do anything. All existing customers will still be able to use CSE. Although, here it says that the product will completely shut down after a year. https://enterprise.google.com/search/products/gss.html
April 13, 20177 yr @David.. From what I understood, Google Site Search (GSS) will be shut down, not CSE.
April 13, 20177 yr Just now, Gabriel Torres said: @David.. From what I understood, Google Site Search (GSS) will be shut down, not CSE. You're right!
April 14, 20177 yr Ok, so as I pay for Site Search, I'll just downgrade to CSE and get ads with my results. Is that right?
May 17, 20177 yr My search results fail to show. A JS error is printed to the log; Cannot read property 'CustomSearchControl' of undefined I created a non-paid search engine to test with, the same issue occurs with that. I have cleared the cache also.
May 30, 20177 yr Hi Daw, i currently run the 102 version and no ads are displayed, is that a bug and if so is it fixed in 103?
