By default Joomla! Search results are shown on the Home Page template. It is possible to change this by adding a hidden field to the search module. Within your homepage template folder create a new directory called “html” and then “mod_search”. Copy the “default.php” file from /modules/mod_search/tmpl/ into your newly created “mod_search” folder under your template folder. Open this file at near the bottom just before the end of the form, replace: <input type="hidden" name="limitstart" value="0" /> <input type="hidden" name="option" value="com_virtuemart" /> <input type="hidden" name="view" value="category" /> to: <input type="hidden" name="limitstart" value="0" /> <input type="hidden" name="option" value="com_virtuemart" /> <input type="hidden" name="view" value="category" /> <input type="hidden" name="Itemid" value="48" />
