Apache Solr Search comes with the ability to create new custom search pages with specific parameters e.g. you can create a new search page to search only one content type. This is pretty awesome, but I had a use case where we needed the search form on an existing page. This module provides a generic solution for doing that from any search page you create, simply by ticking a checkbox on the search page form, and positioning the new block wherever you want it. When a search is performed, the results appear on the search page you created.
