Description

Per T173988, it would be useful in some user experience cases to allow the user to specify a GuidedTour to be run on the resulting search page.

For this to work, the query parameter tour=[tourname] needs to be added into the URL. An additional optional parameter will be added:

<inputbox>
type=search
bgcolor=#ffffff
namespaces=main
searchbuttonlabel=Search Wikipedia for alternative titles
break=no
tour=test
</inputbox>

results in the user being sent to http://testwiki.cxlabs.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=[search string]&tour=test
