3. Why are we here?

4. Search as an application tool  It’s fairly obvious but we can search for content  Quick access to a dataset  Could be cached  Could be near real time  Security Trimmed results  Cross Site Content  Easy to work with LARGE sets data

8. What’s the problem  All the results look the same  Documents and sites look the same but are not the same  This is the experience that everyone is used to.

9. Current Problem SharePoint 2010 Search  Not easily customizable  Changes to Search require an admin  SharePoint Enterprise Search not as feature rich as needed  FAST Search costs extra  FAST Search is not easily configured  Refiners are not very snazzy  Not easy to administer

10. SharePoint 2013 Search  Rewritten to combine SharePoint Enterprise Search and FAST search  New Functionality  Display Templates  Result Types  Query Builder  Site/Site Collection Search Management  Result Sources  Continuous Crawl  Automatic Property Creation  Improved speed and scalability

11. Display Templates  Determine how the content for search will be rendered  Written in HTML/JavaScript instead of XSL  Best approach is to take an existing template and copy it  Place your display templates in your master page folder

12. Layers for display templates ControlItem Also: Filter, Group and Hover Panel

13. Demo Display Templates

14. Result Types  Result Types are a combination of conditions and display templates  Conditions match properties to identify a particular type of result  The result type allows the changing of the appearance of this particular item  This is what allows us to bring our and highlight the information that is useful for each item in search.  Based on the conditions we can have specialized displays of content based on any managed property

15. Building a Result Type  Plumb any properties you need into search  Create the look you want with a Display Template  Hook up the template to a Result Type  Try it out with a search!

16. Query Builder: Connecting you to results Create queriesPreview Results Full screen query builder to create/test queries Fully integrated with result sources and query rules Query variables are substituted at query time
