    Hey Alan,

     

    What kind of query string do you want to pass to the widget?  I'll ping you directly with some options.

      Hi Kaela,

       

      I am hoping to capture the Ask a Question query and display the results in the sidebar of the Compose post page. That way, even though the auto-suggest doesn’t work in the subject of the Compose post page (when you arrive from Ask a Question), the suggestion list would still be visible.

       

      Perhaps it makes more sense to make a Search REST API call, based on the question that the user asked (value of the subject input), and then display the results in the sidebar. 

       

      What do you think?

       

      :)

        Can someone post back the solution to this thread?  I'm curious about this functionality too.  I am trying to put a "Related Topics" widget elsewhere on my corporate website.

         

        Thanks,
