Create new page in custom namespace via search function

I have created a few custom namespaces. Everything works fine when linking from an existing page to a new page in a certain custom namespace. BUT: When a user is looking for a non-existent page via search and he clicks on "create page" this page is created in main-namespace. So how can I assign that page to a custom namespace? And in general: how can I change the namespace a page is assigned to?

Hi Gino, the last question: you can change a page's ns simply by changing ist name (put the "XYZ:" before the article's name). Hence the namespaces are not part of the database but only a matter of appearance and search behaviour there's no need to adjust more. But the other question: How to make the "create"-link appear for non-existent articles in a custom-namespace in the search list? I really wonder, too. Bye -Rob.
