Intro
-----

[](#intro)

This module allows to implement a simple search engine for a website.

All searches are directed to a single endpoint: /search/ which is registered in the SiteMap if you use `silverstripe/googlesitemaps`.

You can call `$SimpleSearchForm` in your layout to output a form or create your own : simple point to /search/?q=YourQueryHere.

The search controller will search existing pages and DataObjects available in the sitemap.

Rendering the layout is up to you, but sample templates based on Bootstrap 5 are available in the /templates folder. We use the default `Page_results.ss` layout.

Searching DataObjects
---------------------

[](#searching-dataobjects)

By default, this module will also search any DataObject registered in the sitemap.

```
GoogleSitemap::register_dataobject(BlogTag::class);
GoogleSitemap::register_dataobject(BlogCategory::class);
```

Will by default enable search on these objects.

Misc
----

[](#misc)

- Please note with use ending / at the end of the url
- Implement custom filters in your dataobjects with getSearchFilters

Compatibility
-------------

[](#compatibility)

Tested with 4.6 but should work on any ^4 projects
