The search feature will allow users to search and find pages. You can also add a search box to your website or web application.
When you enter text into the search box located on the top right, matching page suggestions will appear to help you quickly navigate to the desired page. The page title matches the suggestions. Choose one of the suggestions to navigate directly to the page or ignore and perform a site search.
You can use your keyboard to quickly move up and down the list of suggestions then just press the Enter key to open.
The search will be performed sitewide. Draft pages and pages marked to be excluded from the search will not return in the results. Search will search each page's content, page title, search keywords, and table of contents name.
To perform a search, simply enter the search text into the search box and press the Enter key.
Search keywords allow you to provide additional searchable text and targeted keywords for a page such as "password, password reset, lost password, forgot password" that the system will use when performing a search.
