The search problem is probably caused by broken URL rewriting if you 
type "teststring" into a search box on you site you get the URL 
http://seattlewiki.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=teststring&go=Go but 
if you change the ? to a & you get 
http://seattlewiki.org/wiki/Special:Search&search=teststring&go=Go 
which works as expected. I suspect you a rewriting /wiki/$1 to 
wiki.phtml?title=$1 if you do you'll get two ?s in the URL and it wont 
work.

Special:Allpages on your site seems to be working for me.
