Promoted search results
.. module:: wagtail.contrib.search_promotions
The searchpromotions
module provides the models and user interface for managing "Promoted search results" and displaying them in a search results page.
"Promoted search results" allow editors to explicitly link relevant content to search terms, so results pages can contain curated content in addition to results from the search engine.
Installation
The searchpromotions
module is not enabled by default. To install it, add wagtail.contrib.search_promotions
to INSTALLED_APPS
in your project's Django settings file.
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'wagtail.contrib.search_promotions',
]
This app contains migrations so make sure you run the migrate
django-admin command after installing.
Usage
Once installed, a new menu item called "Promoted search results" should appear in the "Settings" menu. This is where you can assign pages to popular search terms.
Displaying on a search results page
To retrieve a list of promoted search results for a particular search query, you can use the {% get_search_promotions %}
template tag from the wagtailsearchpromotions_tags
templatetag library:
{% load wagtailcore_tags wagtailsearchpromotions_tags %}
...
{% get_search_promotions search_query as search_promotions %}
<ul>
{% for search_promotion in search_promotions %}
<li>
<a href="{% pageurl search_promotion.page %}">
<h2>{{ search_promotion.page.title }}</h2>
<p>{{ search_promotion.description }}</p>
</a>
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
