SharePoint Home Page - Modern Search Promoted Results

New modern SharePoint search looks great, but does not show promoted results as in classic experience. Any plans for this feature?

Yep, agree here...modern search experiences are just starting to surface in Office 365 and SPO and we will see more innovations here in the future

  Hi!
  
  We do show promoted results / best bets that has been configured on the enterprise search center of a tenant.
  
  If you have configured the promoted results on the enterprise search center and do not see them in the search results page it would be interesting to figure out why this is happening.
  
  Has this not been working all along on the modern search experience or did it stop working recently?
  
  If you are familiar with looking at network requests you should find the best bets query that is issued by searching for suxrid=ms-oil-datasource-bestbetDataSource in the browser network tab.

    Geir-Magnus PettersenIt works when the query rule is configured in the SPO Admin Center but not when configured in a site collection or site. This type of inconsistency is very frustrating. I cannot find any documentation that describes this limitation. It appears to be a bug and should be fixed.
