Does this plugin allow you to search your OJS website with Google Search OR does it allow you to search Google from your OJS website? If it is the latter, then it is not very useful because it is better to search YOUR OJS content, rather than search Google.

Hi newone,

I'm pretty sure it's the former, but I haven't tried it myself. I suggest you give it a shot.

Cheers,
James

Hi
Whenever I submit a search through this plugin I get following error

The plugin was written for OJS 2.2.x and you're trying to run 2.3.x. The core.Handler class has moved to handler.Handler. However, other changes may also be necessary to get the plugin to work.

Juan,

Which are the other changes needed to this plugin works out on 2.3.x?

Are you planning to work on it?

Thanks,
Renato
