BuddyPress Global Search

Very nice. The Ajax search works. But, when I click on all results, it breaks my search results page. It must be the way my theme is set up. To be fair, this could be a rare problem that only a few people will experience. 

Neat, doesn't work

The plugin works great and does exactly what it says. 
I really appreciate that support agreed to my request of adding an apply_filter to their code that enables us to implement a customization we needed, thank you so much for that!

Great plugin & support

BuddyPress Global Search allows for a global, unified search of all BuddyPress components, with a live dropdown as you type.
