How to Customize the Look and Feel of Your Results Page
Page Title
The default page title is {Query} - {SiteName} Search Results. This title includes parameters for the searcher’s query term and the site name you provide on the Site Information page in the Admin Center.
See the sample results page below for a search for everglades on Broward County’s website.
You can change the default page title by deleting the text and entering your preferred title.
Favicon
Provide the URL for your agency’s favicon. (A favicon, short for favorites icon, is the small image associated with your website.)
Font
Select your preferred font family.
Borders
Select the option, Add Top Padding, to add some padding above your search results. If you don’t select the option, the results will be flush against the top of the browser window.
With Add Top Padding Selected
Select the option, Add Drop Shadow, to display a drop shadow around the main content of your results page. If you don’t select the option, no drop shadow will appear.
With Add Drop Shadow Selected
Theme
Select a predefined theme by clicking on its radio button. Customize a theme by clicking on its ‘Customize’ button.
Customize the color of any page element by clicking on the color picker text field. Enter a valid three- or six-digit hex value or pick a color by dragging the cross-hair icon inside the color picker window. Drag the triangle icon to control the color saturation. When you are done, click anywhere outside the color picker window.
Background Image
Use the Browse… option to upload the logo or image that you’d like to appear in the background of your page, if any. Click on the option, Mark page background image for deletion, to delete an uploaded image.
Use the drop-down menu to select a repeat option.
- not repeat
- repeat (both horizontally and vertically)
- repeat-x (horizontally, left to right)
- repeat-y (vertically, top to bottom)
