About Related Results in .NET Search Interfaces
Coveo .Net Front-End 12.0.404+ (October 2013)
Note: A developer can also configure related results using the Coveo JavaScript Search Framework (see Adding Related Results to a JavaScript Search Page).
Example: The technical documentation is distributed on three websites:
-
Online Help (end-user and administrator content)
-
Developers (developer content)
-
API Reference (content generated from source code)
In the screen capture shown below, when you search for information from the Online Help search page, in the center, the main search results present documents from the Online Help while relevant content from the Developers and API References websites appear in separate and dedicated Related Results panels on the right.
Using a Related Results panel is simple:
-
Each time you perform a search, the content of the Related Results panels present in the .NET search interface is updated to present relevant content from the other .NET search interfaces.
-
When you click a result in a Related Results panel, the document opens.
-
You can switch to the .NET search interface of the Related Results panel by clicking the Show all link.
Notes:
-
Your Coveo administrator can add none to many Related Results panels independently for each .NET search interface and configure its content and behavior (see Adding or Customizing a Related Results Panel With the .NET Interface Editor).
-
A Related Results panel has the same purpose and is an alternative to Mini-Results (see About Mini-Results in .NET Search Interfaces).
