Search Module update
We would like to be able to save search data for more than a date. Currently it looks like we only see information in the report from the current date.
I want to be aware of how much space the reports take up and also that the module does not affect site performance.
Comments:
- Solution: The Search Log module offers search logging for the core Search module or any module that implements the hook_search_info() hook. The module stores the log data in its own table, however, it allows you to clear out the logs from its adminstration page (Configuration -> “Search log”).
You can also configure the module to keep logs only for a certain amount of days. By default, it’s set to 0 which means it’ll keep the logs indefinitely. (Brian Canini - Jan 4, 2017)
- Added Search Log module to ASC site - testing on it before adding module to standard sites (Brian Canini - Jan 4, 2017)
- We can revisit this once the news and events node image is fixed. We'll need to see if there is a solution for capturing the search terms that people put in the search bar at the top of the ASC website. (Eva Dale - Jan 5, 2017)
- ASC Search bar in Main Menu was custom html code which isn't recognized by Search Log module. I rebuilt search bar in ASC main menu using Drupal 7 best practices (placing search block in code programmatically), this resolved the issue of the module not logging searches (Brian Canini - Jan 9, 2017)
- This is working well on ASC. (Eva Dale - Jan 11, 2017)

- testing module on standard sites on dev - it appears that once the module is activated the report is viewable without having to change permissions
- testing drush command on dev to enable module on all sites (Brian Canini - Jan 11, 2017)
