I wasn't getting any response from where I posted this question (on a very old thread I might add) so here is the question again:

How would I be able to get and save TP landmarks from a search result?
It seems that when I select an item in an in world searchs, result there are no TP links populating any more (or they are way down at the bottom of the page, hidden, where I can't get to then).
Am I looking in the wrong tab? Could it be that my settings wrong?

I've had this problem also when trying to use the All tab, so don't use it any longer. Had only been using it to see what the new search was like. Apparently ugly results with no ability to click on and TP. Strange.

I'm unsure of why you guys are unable to teleport using the new search (all tab). They work fine for me. I'm wondering if you are going far enough into the search though. You have to actually click on the place you want to go to get the TP button. Ok, maybe that's not detailed enough because to me it sounds like i'm mocking you and I'm totally not. What I mean is......for instance, do a search for body stocking... profiles, classifieds, place search listings, events, etc will pop up.

I'm not in game right now, but if I remember correctly, to get to an actual store, click on the places listing and then use the TP button when the place listing info comes up (it should show the parcel description, the picture beside it, below that a TP button and below that a list of all the objects on the parcel that are set to show in search with their price, name and description) I think the TP button is there if you click on a classified ad, but I'm not positive on that one, it could be that you have to click on the classified ad and then click on the store link from there, but I don't think so.

If you are opening someone's profile, it shows you their "Picks" where you can read what the pick says. If you click on it, It will pull up the places search listing for the parcel that the Pick is set to.

I hope that helped some and didn't confuse anyone too much (cause I even confused myself a little being as I'm not in game)

Yes that was a little confusing but quite funny Felicitie, lol :) What I miss in the new all tab is "show on map", otherwise I don't mind it at all.

As far as I know you can't make a landmark from search results unless you actually go there and create one. Please correct me if I am wrong.

The problem is that when I click on something in the results, I get an error page. Never fails. Maybe it was for whatever I was searching for. Maybe my internet connection was failing. Not sure, but kept getting error pages after clicking on the thingie.

Well Felycitie, I am selecting the particular place in my search, but neithier a link, nor TP button shows up, where they used to...I am tumped. Now I get better success shopping (yeah, guys shop) when I ask someone for links to find particular items; they usually drop me a link, or take me shopping.
