Search plugin (I18N)

[mvlcek]

Hi, I search plugin works and look for results, but does not seek texts on the Dominion blog (plugin).

The search plugin indexes all pages of the installation, but the Dominion blog does not store the news as pages but in a separate file.

In my opinion every piece of content on a CMS should be stored in the same way, only differing by the metadata. For example the news on my site http://mvlcek.bplaced.net are normal pages with a slug/URL with date and time like news-20110114-1235 and as parent the page news. Additionally they get the tag/keyword _news.

On the news page I just use a search for all content with tag _news. It's automatically sorted with the newest news first.

I plan on updating the I18N plugin so that you can configure it to exclude certain pages and their children (to exclude the news) and creating a plugin which will simplify news entry:

• admin: list the news ordered by date, grouping them by year and month, if their are too many.
  
• admin: create a news item and automatically set the tag, slug and parent
  
• provide a news list where the first paragraph and possibly the first picture of the news item is displayed
