SDN Search Forum uses Google functionality?

Hello All,
I would just like to confirm if the Search forum fuctionality of SCN forums use google functionality in the background anywhere. As i use the search functionality often in SCN, the administrators in my organization are telling that they receive lots of google search related alerts which is causing some traffic congestion from my system. I just want to confirm if google search is a part of SCN search.
Regards,
Vikranth

Hello Jaishankar,
Its true that the results vary when you search with the same keywords in google and scn forums. But my question is whether SCN anywhere makes a call to the google search functionality to fetch the results within the SDN website. I am asking this question just to confirm that SCN search is not responsible for the traffic congestion we are facing.
Regards,
Vikranth

I am getting a 404 error when trying to access any search link using google, I can get to a website if I enter the url directly. I have cleared my history, emptied the cache and reset safari.

Right. If you are using delegated privs and sudo, make sure that sudo is configured to pass on the PERL5LIB and ORACLE_HOME environment variables at least.

Clicked on any the link searched by using google or yahoo, it opened a new tab on latest update. Why's not direct the link on the same tab like last update?

When I'm using google, yahoo or ask, or any search engine website. I did any random research used and clicked on any link searched by google, it immediately opened and directed me to the new tab to the link that I just clicked. My question is: Why isn't direct the link that I want to load on the same tab? It didn't happen on the last update. Is this a bug? If it's not then is there any solution? Maybe the setting. I will thanks and appreciate for any help.

Opening the results in the same tab or in a new tab can be set via the search settings page of the Google and Yahoo! sites.
For the Google website you can set your preferences on the Google.com page via the gear icon at the top right, click that button to open the menu list and select Search settings.
* http://www.google.com/preferences?hl=en
* Results Window: Open search results in a new browser window.
For Yahoo! on the Yahoo! search page via:
*http://search.yahoo.com/
*More > Preferences > Display & Layout > Open results in a new tab or window

When "Use Google Instant", "Open search results in a new browser window." does not function.

In the "Google Search Setting", if select "Do not use Google Instant", then the selected search result of Google Search will be displayed in a new window, but if "Use Google Instant", the selected result will replace Google Search window. This problem does not exist when using Chrome Browser.

That does what it says - even if Google tells the browser to open the page in a new window, you have told Firefox to ignore that and open it in a new tab. Uncheck the box and you should get the result you want.

When i use a search engine like google, yahoo, etc., when I click on the link I am immediately redirected to a different site. How to I prevent this?

when i use a search engine like google, yahoo, etc., when I click on the link, I am immediately redirected to another site. Many times I must hit "back", and click on the link again. Sometimes I am redirected again to another and different site. If I go back again and re-click, it will then take me to the link that is listed.

You possibly have been infected with some type of malware (adware/spyware/virus, etc.). Do a thorough scan of your system.

Google-searched forum links

Adobe forums lost the functionality to open the entire message board thread from the google-search results. It will direct you first to the main page and required you to be signed in first. AND when you managed to sign in, you are just in the main home page without the result you clicked from the google-search.
And even if you are signed in already, clicking the google-searched result pointing to the adobeforums will still lead you to the main home page instead of the actual thread discussion.
I hope this functionality will be considered again. The forums has TONS of sections and products and it will be difficult to use operators here versus the one that Google use.
Also the forums has not migrated all the topics especialy in the premiere elements section.

AVG Secure Search appears when I use Google Search from my Home page only.

My home page is the Firefox default page with the Google searchbar. I like getting occasional messages from Firefox when I log in so I don't want to change my homepage. However, when I use the searchbar ''on my homepage only'', I get the unsatisfactory AVG Secure Search results.
UPDATE: I now realize all the troubleshooting information I included in my original question appears under the "More System Details" link next to the question, not in the body of the question. I have copied it here to make it easier to see what I have already done to try to solve the problem, as well as describe the one clue I have that may be relevant:
I have tried all the fixes on various threads, but my about:config is now pristine (no avg or isearch mentions; keyword.url is default). Closest solution is that at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/866327 , which requires changing my home page.
Oddly, AVG Secure Search is ''not'' a problem when I use the Google toolbar or search from the Google website, only when I use the search bar that appears on my home (start) page. This is true even when I return to my home page--if I search from the Google search bar in the middle of the page, I get sent to AVG Safe Search. (isearch.avg.com).
I read in one thread a suggestion to delete my chromeappsstore.sqlite file in my Profile folder. As promised, Firefox created a new one when I restarted it; however, the search bar in the middle of my home home page did not work at all. Tried this three times before restoring my original.
I do not have an application that will open a sqlite file, but I tried doing so in Excel and found a cell containing the following:
emoh.:moz-safe-aboutsearch-engine{"name":"AVG Secure Search","searchUrl":"http://isearch.avg.com/search?cid={7A3C25A0-E345-4507-AA31-D98F596A81A9}&mid=c48135235ba247d18ac1d14b344db451-addd29eab2809954d5abdf0b991a5b911a297819&ds=is015&lang=en&v=10.0.0.7&pr=sa&d=&sap=dsp&q=_searchTerms_"}
I have no clue what that means, but it is the only thing I can find related to Firefox that still mentions AVG and isearch.avg.com.
At this point my best guess (but it is a guess) is that the chromeappsstore.sqlite file is a key to the complete solution, but I do not have enough knowledge to go beyond and address it. I appreciate any help you anyone can offer.

Here is the way to get rid of the problem once and for all:
http://forums.avg.com/ww-en/avg-forums?sec=thread&act=show&id=196402#post_196402

After I search using Google in Firefox, and hit the back arrow button to return to the main homepage I use, the browser won't take me there. Instead, I'm left at the initial results page from my search.

Assume I start at Google as my homepage. I search for Federal Reserve. Google then brings up a number of selections for Federal Reserve. I can scroll through to more search results on page 2, 3, 4, etc. Now suppose I want to use the back arrow button to go back to Google as my homepage. I’ve found what I was looking for. When I try to get back to Google, the furthest back I can go is to page 1 of the search results. The browser won’t take me back to the original starting page which was Google. Also, it doesn’t matter what the starting page or initial page was. The browser will only take me back to the initial page after the original homepage. By the way, I did not install any new software or applications prior to this problem occurring. My guess is that it may have something to do with the function keys at the top of the keyboard. But I can’t figure out what the problem is with the function keys. It’s only a guess.

IOS6 Magnifier Missing in Safari using Google Search engine

Seems that i have lost the ability to move and place the cursor with or without the magnifier in the google home search box, when using google in Safari. I can no longer get a magnifier to appear nor move cursor to middle of word to fix a typo. This happend after IOS6. Anyone else?

Hi I'm experiencing the exact same issue and joined up this forum only today just so I can reply - I have never felt the need to before and this is what the current ios6 issues have pushed me to do! Apple please act on the known issues ASAP and restore your customer's confidance!
Rant over - so yes what I have found is that the top box doesn't work BUT the alternative 2nd search box at the BOTTOM works fine - I'm able to magnify, drag cursor and highlight as per usual
So seems apple can't even be consistent in their issue causing updates!!
@Apple support - please can someone reply and update us on this?

Why does using Google in the search bar (and only Google) not let me open search results in the same tab?

Hello,
When I use Google in the search bar, I have to open the search results in a new tab. If I simply click on them to open in the current tab, I'm inevitably redirected right back to the main Google site. This has only started happening in the past month or two -- I'm considering switching to Chrome after 5 years with Firefox because of this. Please help! It's incredibly frustrating to consistently have to remind myself to open all search results in a new tab. It's quite a waste of time over the course of a day.
Here are the basic steps:
1) I do a search using Google in the search bar.
2) As is supposed to happen, the search returns results in the current tab.
3) When I click on a result link, I'm immediately sent back to www.google.com.
4) If I hit back to try to return to the search results, I'm taken to the page that was loaded BEFORE I even did the search.
5) If, and only if, I instead right-click or Mouse3 click on the search results and open them in a new tab, I can successfully go to the search result pages.
--Thank you

I have been putting in a URL and yahoo snags it parses it to several words then gives me a search page... I use Google for search andf I want to go to the specific URL I entered... How do I block Yahoo from doing this crap?

I use google for my search engine. I do not have any reference to Yahoo in my plugins or extensions on Firefox. Every time I enter a specific URL in the Firefox box, Yahoo comes up, has the full URL I entered to go directly to. It has the URL in the Yahoo search entry field and it parses the name to several words that make up the entire URL. Asks me if I only want the name I entered and lists every site that contains the words it parses... Yahoo is really screw up if it hijacks the browser. How do I prevent them from doing this...

Hi,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
