Does anyone know how to remove the "All Forums" from the "Search Where" box when you do a search? I want people to be able to choose specific forums when searching....not search on all of them at once, because it uses up alot resources on the site when they choose "All"

Thanks!

Try this:

Note this is untested as I tried it with an almost empty database so have no 'results' anyway.

Open /sources/action_public/search.php

Around line 756:

		$forums   = "<select name='forums[]' class='forminput' size='10' multiple='multiple'>\n"
				   ."<option value='all'".$init_sel.">".$this->ipsclass->lang['all_forums']."</option>"
				   . $the_html
				   . "</select>";

Replace with:

		$forums   = "<select name='forums[]' class='forminput' size='10' multiple='multiple'>\n"
				   . $the_html
				   . "</select>";

You are effectively just removing this line:

."<option value='all'".$init_sel.">".$this->ipsclass->lang['all_forums']."</option>"

Does remove the 'All Forums' option from the search page, although check a search in a forum (or multiple forums) to confirm it does work properly.
