i'm not sure this is still relevant, but it sounds fairly easy to do. just hack SpecialSearch.php so the links it returns are to Special:Recordclick?search=<term>&result_title=<result title>. then, Special:Recordclick can record both and redirect to the title page. then you get a list of pairs of the searches and what people clicked.

Is there any extension to track what pages people are searching for with a wiki's internal search engine? I've realized that I actually know very little about what the average user is searching for, and so I don't necessarily know what redirects would be appropriate, what ideal article titles would be, and other things of that nature. I haven't been able to find such an extension, but I would assume data on what people are searching for is already logged somewhere? _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list MediaWiki-l@lists.wikimedia.org http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
