limit results?
 

Hello, I was wondering if anyone had created code to limit results. What I mean by this is, instead of returning 4324 results from the same site, after 5 or so, it would move on to the next site. becouse when I search on the one I made, the first 5-6 pages are all this one site, and if i wanted to view that many from the same site, I would clikc on the limit to link. make sense? can anyone help me.

Hi. PhpDig version 1.6.4 has an option in the config file to set the max number of results per site to display. When set to X, there will be at most X results from each of Y sites displayed, and if limit to a certain site is clicked, X results for that site will be displayed.

I'm new to this, but can you please tell me how this 'limit' thing work and also, I didn't get one feature:
the is a $site var in PhpDig, for example search.php?query_string=blablabla&site=

Can you please explain to me these 2 features?

Hi. If you click the limit to website link, then only results from that website are displayed. The site variable identifies a website.

I did that limit thing, but, you said it will show all the results from that site, it is only showing the 'result per site' I limited which is 2 results per site. Is there anyway to show only 2 results in the whole results page and all the results from that site in the limit?

Thanks.

Hi. Actually it works like above. ;)

However, if you want to have at most X results from each of Y sites displayed on a 'main' search, and then want all results for a given site displayed on a 'limit to' search, just do the following.

In search_function.php find:
and replace with:
