Hi I have a client who wants to search within News module and limit the search to a selected category.
They don't want results found on pages outside of the news category found / displayed.
Is this possible?
If yes can someone provide me with an example of the tag or code to try this.
Thank you.

The following code will search and show results from only the News module.
{search modules="News" resultpage="search-results"}
You can of course name your results page something else.
This following might also be of assistance:

Hello,
Sorry to "re open" this topic, but I can't find any answer to my question.
I need to start a search on the page's content and the news.
How can I do that (ie what is the name of the module for the content) ?
I tried :
{search modules="News, Contents" resultpage="myPage"}
but it doesn't work.
(I'm using CMSMS 1.6.7 for the site)
Thanks a lot for answer

The {search} tag will search both page content and the news module - all categories.
My problem was the client didn't want results from "page content" to show
