Configure Search Results in Modern page (Modern Search Center)
Has anyone been able to modify the search results page of Modern Pages which seems to have missing that at present. There is no way to customize the results view, switch to classic view, use custom result sources or redirect to enterprise search center. It always defaults to "/search/sitefiles" location instead of only "/search". Is there a way to hook into the route and default it to global or do any of the above.
If the modern search results page is not customizable, is there a way (powershell, csom or configurable) way to redirect to classic SharePoint search center page.
- hi Asish, do you have an update on this matter? I ran into the same problem today. Thanks in advance.
I tried using the out of the box ways to adjust the search settings and set another search result page there. But no luck...it is not reflected on the modern sites.
Please check out my blog post on how to "Create an Enterprise Search Web Part for Modern Pages" that show's how to redirect the user to your enterprise search site.
Yeah great blog. Our scope didn't include the flexibility of a new component. We were only be able to modify the existing the search box controls which turned out to be a limitation, so we have hidden it using some fancy CSS and added a left hand link to Enterprise Search
- Are able to share the CSS code to hide the search box as that is what I require at the moment on my communication site.
- AFAIK, you cannot currently modify the modern search results but following announcements Today at Ignite, customizations at Office 365 search is something that will come
Hi Juan,
What happen to Ignite announcement on 2017? Because now its the end of the year 2018. I can not see any option for customization in office 365 search. At least Microsoft should give options to add the refiners. As of now only modified and fietype refiners are available. Please note I am talking about Modern Search.
- We will be there at some point...what it's happening is that new search experience are being rolled out at a slowest pace, it's just a question of time
I am still waiting on this to come. Did they also say when to expect... Few months and the next ignite is there ;)
