Empty Search

I think this blog is going to mainly cover my discoveries of Drupal limitations. Hopefully one day it will cover my work (or the work of others) to fix things, but for now I'll bitch. This bitch is about the search module.

 

Go to a Drupal site and perform a search for something you know does not exist. You will get some random message about Blue Smurfs.

Now try to change that message.

 

Not bloody possible.

There is an answer

There is a way to change this. By setting up a custom language, you can edit most of the content in a properly built module. You can't go and change that much of the structure, but you can at least change the words, which is useful. Now, my next question is... Just how much processing overhead does this technique add to the page rendering.
