This video demonstrates how to customise the search bar on your platform's search page by modifying the 'Search Suggestions' feature flag (`searchPageConfig`) in the CMS. This includes updating the placeholder text, the page title, and adding/editing suggested search links.
Here is the step-by-step description:
Guide: Customising the Search Bar and Suggestions
Step 1: Access the Search Page Configuration (0:07 – 0:13)
1. Navigate to 'App Configuration' in the CMS (0:07 – 0:09).
2. Click the 'Pages & Content' box (0:09 – 0:10).
3. Scroll down and click on the 'Search Suggestions' flag (titled `searchPageConfig`) (0:12 – 0:13).
Step 2: Edit Suggested Links (0:14 – 0:42)
The `SearchSuggestions` section contains a list of quick links displayed below the search bar. You can edit existing links or add new ones.
1. Edit Existing Link: Click on an existing ITEM block and enter the title of the movie or series you want suggested on the search page (0:17 – 0:24).
2. Add New Link: Click ADD ITEM TO SEARCHSUGGESTIONS and enter the title of a movie/series. (0:28 – 0:30).
Step 3: Customise the Search Bar Text (0:43 – 0:59)
1. Placeholder Text: Locate the 'Placeholder' field under the 'Input' section (0:46). This text appears inside the empty search bar.
2. Page Title: Locate the 'PageTitle' field to change the name of the search page (e.g., set to "Search") (0:43).
3. Label: Edit the 'Label' field (e.g., set to "Searchbar") (0:43).
4. Error Messages: Review and edit the various error messages (e.g., NoData or TooShort) shown if the search fails or the query is too brief (0:45 – 0:59).
Step 4: Save and Review (1:02 – 1:12)
1. Click 'SAVE' (1:02).
2. Navigate back to the search page on your platform (1:04) and refresh the browser.
The new placeholder text and the updated suggestion links will now be visible (1:06 – 1:12).
