Scoping of search in team site / communication sites
Hi - my feedback - still need an ability to place custom scopes here - they can be links to the 'classic' search experience. Alot of the clients where I've helped on search have used this on the classic method to provide custom pages into specific areas of their businesses - eg 'projects', 'compliance', 'intranet' vs 'everything'.
I dont mind if you place the 'SharePoint' word as a default - but I'd like to have the option to change it to something more relevant to the Client I'm working with. In terms of the big picture on search - there needs to still be the ability to provide custom results pages - the office graph can be clever, but in some situations we dont need clever we just need 'the same for all users, but refined by security' on search scopes.
Hope that helps!
Richard Burdes We are also working on sorting out customization for the modern searchbox and search results page. We still have some work left on this.
Thanks for the tip on making the breadcrumb customization, we have also been thinking about adding custom verticals like the current all, sites, files and people.

Geir-Magnus Pettersen When do you anticipate releasing the new search functionality? Will you be releasing the ability to do metadata search refiners?
It would be great if you could change the up-scope search language to something other than "SharePoint". We conducted several rounds of usability testing on our Intranet currently in development and this caused a lot of confusion.

We will process all of the great feedback you have provided us and come up with a new design that is more descriptive.
When these designs are in place I will propose that we can share this on the community with you for some initial feedback before implementation. We have not done this in the past so will need to talk to the rest of the crew if they think this is a good approach.
Cannot promise any ETA, but July has been summer vacation month in norway for out team so I will be able to get back to you with a more spesific ETA after we have discussed this with the rest of the crew in August.
