@Durangod Very, very good idea about the 1.7 ready folder!

@Cash

i try your your instruction (display_errors 1):

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare search_init() (previously declared in C:\xampp\htdocs\elgg\elgg1.6.1\engine\lib\search.php:17) in C:\xampp\htdocs\elgg\elgg1.6.1\mod\search\start.php on line 54

@Cube - delete /engine/lib/search.php and enable the search plugin and you should be all set. I'll add a ticket on this one. The problem is that the search has been moved but the old one still exists on installs.

@Cube -- This indicated an incomplete upgrade.  All of the search functions have been removed from core and moved to the plugin.  I assume you just uploaded overtop of the existing core installation?  This might be a problem that pops up with more people because this file has been removed completely instead of changed.  Because following the upgrade instructions will present this problem for most users, I think having an empty engine/lib/search.php might be a good ideas.  Thoughts?

@Durangod - The functionality for this is in place but not wired up yet.

@Durangod - I think you probably know what I am talking about, but if you compare the feature in Firefox vs Opera vs IE, you will see that Firefox and Opera are just fine. But IE has the widget fly away up and to the left and then come back down and then it disappears from the box on the right.  It's a weird effect I hadn't seen before.  Maybe I just missed it before, but it is really weird and uncomfortable.

@Yakiv - please add the fly away widget issue to the core Trac. Thanks.

@Cash - I am in the process of making the ticket.

@Brett @Cash
