Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Manuel Molina Posted March 7, 2022 Posted March 7, 2022 For some reason community members cant search for other community members in the search engine of my community. Is there a permission I need to give in AdminCP? Help appreciated
Solution Randy Calvert Posted March 7, 2022 Solution Posted March 7, 2022 This is not something built into the default UI (at least that I could see). Try something like: https://invisioncommunity.com/search/?type=core_members Change this URL to your URL obviously. If that works, you can add a link to it in your Menu Manager.

It worked, will do that. It would be ideal that members can search for other members directly in search field. But this works. thanks again.

ACP > System > Settings > Advanced Configuration > Friendly URLs > Create New In the "Friendly URL" field enter "search/members" In the "Real URL" field enter "app=core&module=search&controller=search&type=core_members" Sonya* and Manuel Molina 2

And in desktop you search a nameandit wont bring profiles as results. Only content the persona you searching for has participated in.

In order to search members you would like the search icon without entering anything to get to the advanced search, then click to search members Manuel Molina 1
