Congrats, you've broken the scripts. ;)

The grabbers referenced above are only capable of searching items in the DB.
 That is, you need to have subscribed to the tree view and filled the
database, and then it will report that search is available, as you will have
items in which to search.  None of the above scripts search the sites
themselves, as the sources don't offer a search and/or are mashups.

 Nothing that I see here to fix.
