Creating a search module

Now that you have configured at least one module instance (component instances are optional) and a Minitek Live Search menu item (optional), you must publish the Minitek Live search module in a module position of your choice. Remember that a search in Minitek Live Search is performed only through the Minitek Live Search module.

Follow the steps below to configure and publish the Minitek Live Search module:

  1. Go to Extensions > Module Manager and open the module Minitek Live Search.

  2. Under the tab Module select a module position and set the Status to Published.

  3. Under the tab Module you must link the module to a module created in Minitek Live Search admin panel. Just select a module from the dropdown list of the field Module.

  4. Under the tab Menu Assignment assign the module to the menu items of your choice.

  5. After that you need to configure the parameter Component results. This is important if you want to use the component page to show the results. The menu item selected in the Component results field is the menu item that the user is redirected to when the search button in the module is clicked. Make sure that this menu item is of type Minitek Live Search - Search results and that it has active component instances attached to it.

  6. Click on "Save & Close".
