What would you like done?  
We are migrating from Google Groups.  
We will stop people posting to the new Google Groups but keep it open as an archive  
When someone searches our Discourse category, we’d like to include a link to the old forum.  
For example, if someone searches for Water and Bird, we’d want a link on the page somewhere like this:  
[See results in the SMART Community Archive](https://groups.google.com/u/2/a/smartconservationsoftware.org/g/community/search?q=water%20and%20bird)  
We assume this can be done with some simple javascript

When do you need it done?
