Just enter "Search" and you will see the Google search box in the top.

As a reminder for myself:

Just added Google Search as an alternative search method: one needs to enter ACP, select Styles, select Templates and edit search_body.html

Add

Code: Select all

<div class="panel bg3">
  <div class="inner">
    <span class="corners-top"><span></span></span>
   <h3>Google Search query</h3>
   <fieldset>
      <dl>
        <dt><label for="q">Google Site Search:</label><br><span>To search a phrase, surround in double quotes ""<br/> To exclude terms, lead with -<br/>  For exact terms, lead with +<br/>For wildcards use * </span></dt>
        <dd>
          <form method="get" action="http://www.google.com/search">
            <input type="text" name="q" size="40" maxlength="255" value="" class="inputbox"/><br/>
            <input type="radio" name="sitesearch" value="www.gps-laptimer-forum.de" checked="checked" /> LapTimer Forum <br/>
            <input type="radio" name="sitesearch" value="www.gps-laptimer.de" /> LapTimer Home Page<br/>
            <input type="submit" value="Google Search" />
          </form>
        </dd>
     </dl>
    </fieldset>
  </div>
  <span class="corners-bottom"><span></span></span>
</div>
behind the <h2> line.
