Modern Document library and search
Hi all!
We have a Team-Site in SPO with the old 2013-look. The Document libraries use the new look. The new libraries have a search button on the top left (like ODfB), but the results differ quite a bit from the results that is returned when searching the site. The reasons for this are obvious, but is there any way of changing the search-field on the top left inside the document library view to give the same results as searching the entire site?
The exact case: We are using a library for technical documentation. We have added terms in the site-search that corresponds with a specific document that are highlighted in the search, but when our users search within the list itself, it returns too much non-relevant information.
Sincerely
Torbjørn

We added a Custom Search link to the structured navigation menu on the left of the page. It's not ideal, but provides a way to search modern sites/libraries with managed metadata and still use the refinement panel.
The link would be something like the following:
https://<tenantname>.sharepoint.com/search/Pages/results.aspx?cntxt=<path to modern site>/&k=%20

- Hi Juan Carlos. Thanks for the quick reply. We'll train our users to ignore this field for now ;o)
Have a nice weekend.
TorbjørnCan't you hide it using CSS?
