    Search Throughout VBulletin and Static Documents

    Hi,

    I would like to know whether there is any possibilities in such that there's a single interface to search static documents such as PDF and HTML on the web server as well as search within the DB contents of vBulletin?

    Thanks.

    Not by default in vB, although I'm sure you could use a third party spider/engine to accomplish this.

      Would you have any ideas or suggestions which 3rd party engine/spider that may be able to do it, and in turn, compatible to work with vB?


      Thanks.

        Check out Google Custom Search, it integrates nicely:
