I ended up digging around meta search and found the following code:
def metasearch(opts = {})
opts ||= {} # to catch nil params
search_options = opts.delete(:search_options) || {}
builder = MetaSearch::Builder.new(self, search_options)
builder.build(opts)
end
alias_method :search, :metasearch unless respond_to?(:search)
Long story short this assigns the search method only if one isn't
already defined. TS should do this as well. When I'm done with my
thesis I may fork it and see what I can do.
