Configuring quick search

You have the possibility to configure the quick search in d.velop center.

This is how it works

  1. Switch to the administration mode of d.velop center by clicking on the Settings gear > Administration mode.

  2. Click in the Quick search field. The window for configuring the quick search opens.

  3. Select the Item relations tab.

  4. Configure the quick search.

    For example, by specifying additional parameters for the quick search.

    Here:

    1. Add "ContentType" and "Title" under Additional parameters.

    2. Add Title formats.

      E.G. ContentType: "0x01", for all items found.

      Title format: "(ContentType) | (Title)" to display the content type followed by the title in the quick search result. "|" is defined as the separator.

  5. Save the new settings for the quick search with Save.

  6. Save the complete configuration via Settings gear > Save.

Please also note the chapter Item settings in the quick search below.

Item settings in the quick search

The following describes the functionalities of the item settings for quick search:

Placeholder: Enter a placeholder here to be displayed in the quick search text box.

Result source ID: Here you can enter the ID of a result source.

We recommend using one result source. Only result sources created in the search service application are supported. For more general information on configuring result sources, see the Microsoft 365 documentation under the search term "Manage result sources".

Example ID

b09b7990-05fa-4af9-82ef-edfcb16c4e31

Hide duplicate search results: Determines whether duplicate items should be removed from search results.

Maximum number of search results: Specifies the maximum number of search results that will be displayed.

The absolute maximum is 500.

Sorting: Here you can specify how the search results should be sorted.

For more information, please refer to the Microsoft documentation. Use the search term "Sorting search results in SharePoint".

Start with * wildcard: Decide whether a search should always be performed with an initial wildcard.

End with * wildcard: Decide whether a search should always be performed with an attached wildcard.

Additional parameters: Here you can specify additional parameters for formatting the titles, if desired.

The parameters must be the exact name of the respective managed property.

E.G. CustomernumberOWSTEXT, CustomernameOWSTEXT. You can then enter them in the field and click Add.

Title formats: By default, the quick search returns only the title of a found item.

If this is not sufficient, you can specify a special format for display per content type or list here.

The format is composed of any text, predefined placeholders and dynamic placeholders that can be added via Additional parameters (see above).

Default placeholders: {Title}, {ListItemID}, {ListID}, {SPSiteURL}, {WebID}.

The field with the placeholder ContentTypeID or List ID is used here as a support for selecting a list or content type.
