[Plugin: Search Unleashed] Can't s=search&cat=1,2 (3 posts)

    I'd like to allow visitors to enter their search string and select (from checkboxes) which categories to search, is this possible with this plugin?

    ie mysite.com/?s=search&cat=1,2

    The basic WordPress search allows this but it doesn't seem to be available with this plugin.

    While I'm on the subject I may want to dive deeper into the tags and code to search for the children of a parent page. Would that be possible at all?

    Thanks.

    OK, seem to have it but I'd prefer a better solution. I've had to insert query_posts("cat=$selected_categories"); into the search.php with values passed directly to it.

    I would still prefer that this plugin maintained all of the original WordPress functionality though, unless it does and I'm missing something.
