Hi devs, I committed the new search admin UI and fixed some issuse, should work well now. Some notes: * the actual configuration is put in a document automatically created if it does not exist so that you can upgrade the whole app without having to worry about what you will overwrite * it's using Configurable system but just to be "injected" as admin app, would be nice to be able to have some reusable code when you need custom UI but still we some standard configuration style in the middle of it * there is a new central search page (Main.Search) which include the proper engine search page depending of the configuration Missing things are: * an nice icon: would be cool to have someone else than me on that * rename "web" into "database", i just moved the page yet but "web" is not very nice and i need to change it. I'm just a bit worried about backward compatibility, i think i will create a DatabaseSearch page and redirect WebSearch to Search probably to make old apps use the right default search engine instead of the old hardcoded websearch default page * make number of indexing element refresh automatically using ajax: i'm working on something else right and it's not urgent but i will take care of it (I'm not begging for it if someone want to take it ;)) * write documentation for it in xwiki.org (especially about how to use indexing UI), about that do we have some clean way to put documentation tooltips or something nice to explain to the use what he can put in the fields and how it's working ? Would be cool that some people review it (pretty sure there is typos I did not seen, there is always...). Thanks, -- Thomas Mortagne

Not exactly but it's maybe the same thing, in my case i have some radio button i don't want to see modified in any way (i.e looks like any left aligned radio button with some text near it) and in some browsers/OS the radio button are aligned to the following input field. It's a lot easier to understand by directly looking at it :) Since you are on linux you can probably see the difference by tested with FF (which is showing properly for me) and with Opera (which force radiobuttons to be aligned with other input fields).

Note that i don't know if it's a bug (which is why i never said it was), looks like forcing to align all input field has been made on purpose in the admin special style.

you should: - leave the position of the form: input - button like in the search-icon7.png - leave the search icon oriented towards right, like the first ones (4,5,6) this means the magnifier would highlight the button, not the input - thus emphasing the word "Search" - which is exactly what this area is about.
