Adding Experience Optimization search (deprecated) to Page Templates
The Search Experience Optimization Template Building Block (deprecated) inserts code in your webpages to implement search functionality, which can display results based on search terms or synonyms of search terms.
Before you begin
To create templates you must have Template Management rights and Write permissions for the Folder in which you intend to create the template.
About this task
Search functionality within Experience Optimization allows you to display targeted content based on a user's search term (or terms). When a search query is executed, Elasticsearch (replacement for Fredhopper) returns Promotions and content items that match the query.
Search functionality within Experience Optimization is deprecated as of the SDL Tridion Sites 9 release.
