Hi cike 

 

Search V 1.0 settings are configured in Community Admin > System > Search> Search 1.0. Be sure that Search 2.0 is disabled in the Search 2.0 tab, if visible.

In the XML tab you can configure the component to hide the drop down list that enables uses to choose the scope of their search, to display an Advanced Search link that takes the user to the Search Page that includes filtering options, to use a slim or wide display model, and to default the scoping options to a Community-level scope.

Search V1 supports the parameters: showAdvancedSearchLink, hideGranularity, and defaultToCommunity. Search V2 supports the parameters: mode, hideGranularity, defaultToCommunity

  • To hide the drop down list to scope the search add: hideGranularity="true"
  • To show the Advanced Seach link add: showAdvancedSearchLink="true"
  • To default the scope of the search to be community-wide add: defaultToCommunity="true"
  • To change the component width, add: mode="slim" or mode="wide"
