A free Search Engine is pre-installed in most of our Web-hosting packages. It is not available for JSP and ASP hosting clients.
Our Zeus servers come with a built in search engine, that you can use on your Website. If you encounter any issues during this process, simply contact the helpdesk and one of our operators will be happy to assist.
This search function does not come pre-installed on ALL packages, simply enable the option labeled “Zeus Indexing”. After which the Zeus server will index your Website on a nightly basis, enabling you to have a search engine on your Website. Then, simply add the following form action to your Website, exactly as it is written below:
<form action="/search" method=POST>
<input type=hidden name=indexfile value="$$indexfile;">
<input type=hidden name=template value="$$template;">
Query: <input type=text name=expr value="">
<input type=submit value=Search>
</form>
Note: If you would like to exclude certain directories (folders) from being indexed, you can do so.
-
1. Open Notepad and save a file in each directory to be excluded called ".NoZeusIndex.txt".
-
2. Upload this file to your webserver
-
3. Rename each file, on the server, removing the ".txt". You will end up with a file in each directory called ".NoZeusIndex"
It is not possible to create files with no extension on your hard drive, because Windows/MAC will insist on you including a file type.
