The Search bar component makes it possible to look for content. It differs from the Built-in search bar component by the fact that it is much more flexible, but requires customization.
In the Settings tab, under Search destination, it is possible to choose what happens when users press the Enter key, or select the Search icon.
There are two possibilities:
-
Users stay on the current page, and Fluid Topics updates the content of the Search block, and the state of its components.
For example, if the Search block contains a Search results component, the results update with the query.
-
Fluid Topics redirects users to the selected destination page.
- The destination page can be any Search results, Home, or Custom page.
- When choosing a destination which is a Home or Custom page, all Search block components in the destination page update according to the search query.
