i ve added k2 tools search module

but i notice that i actually loads on the current page that user is navigating..this means, that if i have a side menu attatched it will still display..etc..
and on breadcrumbs i ll have another path added with the search result..

is it possible search results to display in its own page without any extra modules etc that may be present on some sub categories?

You are describing the default functionality of the K2 Tools module.

If you want it to post on another menu item you need to first create a new menu item (eg. on the hidden menu) and then have the search form post on that menu ID.

For example.
<form action="<?php echo $action; ?>"

should turn into this
<form action="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_k2&view=itemlist&task=search&Itemid=YOUR_MENU_ITEM_ID'); ?>"

The file is located in your template's HTML folder in the mod_k2_tools subfolder

thank you for the response Krikor, combined with hidden menu i have the desired result apart from one minor thing..

i keep getting the rss feed active..this is default on the seach.php? if so then i guess i should get rid of it using display:none at custom.css
didn't spot any corresponding setting on the parameters at backend

hi again,

since i use two languages in my site, i need to assign different itemid when the choosen language is english..

i found the variable $language in the helper.php but the echoed value that i get is just Jlanguage no matter what, so i can't make the necessary condition to redirect the form to different url

ideally it would be sth like that

<form action="<?php if (language == el){
echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_k2&view=itemlist&task=search&Itemid=GR_MENU_ITEM_ID');}
else if (language ==en){
echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_k2&view=itemlist&task=search&Itemid=EN_MENU_ITEM_ID');}
?>"

just probably need to find the correct way of manipulating system variables
