Re: CakeDC Search Plugin - How to search 2 fields in DB using only 1 form field?

Hi,

I had the same the same problem as andrewperk and thank you for your
fork that fixes this.

One thing though, is your fork compatible with 1.3 or is it intended
for version 2.x? It says 1.3 in the requirements but when I replace
cakdc's original search plugin with yours it throws an error
(PrgComponent component file was not found). I went into your plugin
code and although I'm not yet familiar with 2.x conventions, the
naming conventions here are obviously not 1.3. Am I missing something
here?

Thanks for your help.
