[VuFind-Tech] New search configuration options

[Demian K. <dem...@vi...>]

Hello again,

I've spent another day refining search code.  I noticed there were some problems with inconsistent search type lists in different templates, and with fully configurable search options, it no longer makes sense to have search options hard-coded in the templates anyway...  so I've created a new "searches.ini" file that contains a few settings related to search options.

It is now possible to customize the order and contents of the basic and advanced search type drop-downs.  You can also set the default search type used if none is specified, and you can control which DisMax handlers VuFind will use (or turn off DisMax entirely if you want to for some reason).

Please take a look at r1673 for more details, and let me know if you have questions or suggestions.

thanks,
Demian
