To add a full-text search (title and messages, like in the "issue.search" template) to the sidebar, add the following to the 'page.html' template in your tracker's "html" directory::
<form method="GET" action="issue">
<input type="hidden" name="@template" value="index"> <input type="hidden" name="@columns"
value="id,activity,title,creator,assignedto,status">
<input type="hidden" name="@sort" value="activity"> <input type="hidden" name="@group" value="priority"> Search: <input name="@search_text" size="10">
</form>
