You need to set this variable above the place where you include the 
wikipublisher library extension.

This is not a good idea, in my view. The PublishTemplate is only 
meaningful if the reader is publishing a pdf. So by the time you 
get to the template page, it knows that you are requesting a pdf, 
so it sets the format for you. Once you uncheck the pdf box, all 
the other options disappear and you just get the html publish 
template. So giving 'pdf' as an option on the publish template
would be confusing, I think.

You are talking about search results? You need to look in search.php, 
the FPLCustom function -- there are various FPLByGroup variables that 
turn search results into a form.

Hope this helps.
