How to Search blog posts and site?

Is there a BSS facility for a search box to allow users to search through the blogs and the website itself? I found this @richards but the DL link doesn’t work… Adding a search function to a bss site

Not natively, you’d have to build a solution.

Search functions usually requires server side code, as searching can be quite complex.

If you wanted a solution that can run client side, using JavaScript I’d imagine it would be most performant to have a JSON file with keywords for each page inside it that then updates an element on the page with the results.

But I can’t be too sure how the suggested solution works in the missing example on that forum post.

I noticed that there is a download to the bsdesign file, is this what didn’t download for you?

I managed to download it, if you have issues I could share it from my cloud service?

Edit: I thought the link would take you to the exact post in the thread with the download link, it does not. But it’s the second last post in the thread.

I had to click on the ‘Download’ button in Google Drive. I expected clicking on the filename would suffice, but not in this case.

That is strange, but the ‘download’ button does work, thanks @Gondwana !
