Search

A search box for your website: visitors find your pages and blog posts by their words. Put it in your header to have it on every page.

Good to know: this block is available on every plan, Free included.

Using it well

The search box lets visitors find your pages and blog posts by the words in them. Results appear under the box while they type, with the words they searched for marked. Put it in your header (Pages > On every page > Header) with the Compact size to have it on every page, or on a page of its own.

What visitors find

Your published pages and blog posts: their titles and the text in their blocks.
Never drafts, unpublished changes, scheduled blog posts that are not out yet, or the text of forms and menus.
On a website with a visitor password, only visitors who entered the password can search.

Changes show up in the search as soon as you publish them. The texts around the box (like "3 results") follow your website's language (Site settings > General & SEO).

Adding it

Open your site in the builder, choose Add in the left panel and pick Search (or search for it). Click the block in the preview to open its settings on the right.
