Customizing the SharePoint Search Box
April 24, 2012
Customization of SharePoint is almost a necessity in order to extract the full benefit from such a large and broad enterprise implementation. Christian Stahl addresses customization of one very important component, the search box, in his piece, “Brand the Search Box in SharePoint 2010.”
Stahl begins:
I have written some blog posts, in the past, about branding the global navigation which is an important part of the SharePoint user interface. The search box is another part of the user interface that often needs a bit of branding especially if it concerns a public faced web site where the search box could be one of the most important elements in the user interface.
Stahl has a good point; the search box is an important branding piece, especially when used in a public facing web site. However, the complications of customization can be daunting, especially if designated staff is not available. Third-party solutions can be a smart add-on solution to an existing SharePoint implementation.
Fabasoft Mindbreeze has an especially attractive web site search feature in Fabasoft Mindbreeze InSite. Read what Dr. Manfred Weiss of Computerwelt had to say about customized web site search with Fabasoft Mindbreeze Insite:
