It will not Steve, its a more "wholistic" approach across all of the forums, and won't replace the "6.0l tech folder" for example.
It is also entirely automatic (i.e. if a better thread gets posted, it will automatically link to that), and will pull info from the galleries that is relevant as well.
Example: https://www.ford-trucks.com/guide-an...2009-f150.html

So if I'm understanding this correctly, the software tracks and tabulates more frequent search terms? If this is correct, then will we mostly see search result topics that will only come mainly from the more popular forums?

Great idea. The search function hasn't been up to par since the last upgrade in my opinion. I'll have to do some more looking through this, but what about links to items that are just described by symptoms since they don't know what they're looking for yet?
An example that comes to mind is the UVCH or Under Valve Cover Harness in the 7.3. Many come here asking about a rough running engine and having a CEL and looking for what to do next.
Might also be a good idea to include our sponsors on the right hand column with a link to threads about how wonderful we think they are.
, but not as much the sponsor company name as the name of the individual we deal with. There are several sponsors here who are fairly active, and if we say you should check with Dennis, Jody, Clay, Dave, Tony, Chris, (and that fellow Ed 
) etc., it might be a good idea to link the individual to their sponsor info.

It will look like this:
http://www.6speedonline.com/forums/vendor_directory.php
It will allow you to easily PM the vendor, find their threads, view a map on where they are located, and also sort them via what products they offer.
