Currently I have a search set up on our Sharepoint 2010 server. The search works fine on the first try however after one search (aka the results page) the scope is defaulted to "this site:search".
I would like to modify the scope options on this page however I cannot seem to locate where to do so?
I would like the same scopes to display on both my results page and original search page. In summary the problem is the search is set up as a separate site and when the results page is displayed the only scope option is this site which esentially has no content. So an added bonus would be to remove the this site option from the page.
For now anyways the search has to stay as a separate site. Thanks in advance.
UPDATE In order to allow for additional scopes in the results page you must go to the site settings (as admin) > Search Settings > Site Collection Search Center and Enable Custom Scopes
I still need to know how to default to all site or hide this site search.
