Glims Custom Search Engines for Messageboards?

[MikeyTree]

I was trying to add a Glims custom search engine for MacRumors forums. However, the search URL doesn't actually have the seacrh terms in it, it comes up as https://forums.macrumors.com/search/?searchid= with a string of numbers at the end.

As a result, the standard Glims method of making new engines doesn't work.

Does anyone know of a way to make this work?

I did this a while ago in Glims using the MRoogle search paramaters and it works perfectly for me. The Query URL should be input as shown below.

http://www.google.com/search?q=#query#+site:forums.macrumors.com&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

Thanks! It didn't occur to me to use Google's site: tag to create a custom search engine.
