I have created a Wiki Page Library for a knowledge base our team uses and added a search box. I would like the search box to only bring back results from the library, not the entire site, but this doesn't seem to be possible. I've looked at 'edit web part' including in the advanced section but am none the wiser.716Views0likes2CommentsHide Results (files and folders) from User's OneDrive when using top Search Bar
Hey All, When a user enters a keyword in the top bar of on SharePoint-based Intranet, the results show files and folders from specific people's OneDrive. Is there a way to have that NEVER show as a result when using the top search bar on any page throughout our Intranet? We're not using a custom search results page. Thanks, Scott712Views0likes1CommentSearch per column in libraries or lists
Hello, in our old Sharepoint 2013 we added kind of a "live search bar" under every column with a script. Is there any way to add or configure something similar in SharePoint Online? Or any Apps that would provide something like this? The search bar with KQL syntax is not very comfortable for the average PC user.475Views0likes2Commentsexclude from site search but allow library search
I have a site with several libraries. One has legacy content, a few others have current content. I want the "Search this site" search to exclude the legacy library, but I also need to be able to navigate to the legacy library and use the "search this library". How do I configure this? When I exclude the legacy library from the search results via "Library Settings > Advanced Settings > Allow items from this document library to appear in search results > No" -- then I don't get any results when I search inside the library. Any ideas? This is for the MODERN experience. Please no suggestions about classic pages.Solved3.6KViews0likes5CommentsAuto-append trailing * wildcard to search for substrings in modern sharepoint
I have a modern communication site and if I search a list for 'can', it will not return Canada, or Canadian in my results. but if I search for can*, both items will be returned. I believe it is possible to program classic search to append this wildcard automatically, so I don't need to type the * every time. But does anyone know how I can achieve this with modern search? And please no one reply with, "this isn't possible". It seems to me, that if this isn't possible, why hasn't Microsoft fixed this yet? I've never seen another intranet search engine work this way. Or am I missing a simple solution to this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. It is not natural for end users to have to remember to type a * at the end of their search string, which consequently returns poor results for their searches..2.5KViews0likes5CommentsSharePoint Online - Guest users access to people search
Hi, I'm wondering if it is possible for guests users have access to people search in SharePoint Online. We are using search rest api to get results from people result source. I found this settings on Azure Portal (Users > User settings > External collaboration settings) Even with the most inclusive option, with a guest we can have access to people search results. I can't find any official documentation supporting the case - supporting or not guest to get people search results. Any idea? Thanks3.8KViews0likes3CommentsRepoint Suggested People to newly created advanced search page
We moved over to use SPO as our Intranet back in July and as part of this move I created a new search page using PnP Search, Results, Verticals. Included in this is a people search so when you use the main search box at the top of our communication site it takes the data you entered in the box over to our new search page, where it then returns the most accurate data you have requested. This also works great as a people search. Unfortunately, we have just realised that if you type the name of a person in the main search box and click on the suggested name, this does not take the data over to the new search page so you have to enter the name of the person again on that page. Has anyone else come across this and if so, how did you get around it?? I have spoken with the break fix team who have advised that there is nothing they can do to help with this. It would either be great to send the name to the new search page or switch off the suggested people element from the main search box. If anyone knows how to do either I look forward to hearing from you. thanks711Views0likes2CommentsCross site collection search vertical
I am want to add a search vertical to a site collection that returns results from a related site collection. I have created the custom search vertical query as below. I've also tried without the quotes and asterisks. The search vertical shows up as expected but doesn't return results. Can verticals be used in this way and can someone assist with the proper syntax please?Solved1.4KViews0likes3CommentsSharePoint 2019 on-premise : Search results page, on click documents are downloading
