Create pages

Create a new page called "Search" (or similar) and a sysfolder called "Search data" (or similar).

Configure Plugins

You need to create two plugins: The searchbox and the resultlist.

1. Create a plugin Faceted Search: Show searchbox and filters on the page Search

   Fill in the field Record Storage Page in the Tab Plugin > General with the folder that you created in step 2 (our example: Search data).

   

   Hint

   It is useful to give the plugin Searchbox and Filters a header (our example: Searchbox, can also set to hidden):

   

   That makes it easier to identify the correct content element in the next step.

2. Create a plugin Faceted Search: Show resultlist on the page Search

   In the field Load FlexForm config from this search box fill in the Search-Plug-In that you created in the previous step (our example: Searchbox).

   

   After this steps, you should have two plugins on your search page.

   

Create the indexer configuration

Use the List module to create an indexer configuration on the page Search data.

• Choose a title.
• Set the Type to Pages.
• Set the Storage to your folder Search data.
• Choose the pages you wish to index. You can decide whether the indexing process runs on all pages recursively or if only one page will be indexed. You can combine both fields.

Start Indexer

Open the backend module Web > Faceted Search and start the indexing process.

You're done!
