Handcrafted Search Result is a banner that appears at the top across the width of the Search Results Page. This is the SE003 Handcrafted Search Results as shown on the OSG Search Results Layout example. While there were two other styles of handcrafted search banners (SE001 and SE002) created in the initial launch of Emerson.com, we have chosen to supersede them with the SE003. Existing usage is still allowed, but authors should only use the SE003 for new handcrafted searches. The SE003 has a lower profile that allows more of the search results grid to show "above the fold". There can only be one Handcrafted Search Result banner for a given keyword search term. Note, a keyword can consist of one or more words grouped together. As this shows at the top of the page above the search results, the handcrafted search banner is tied only to the keyword(s) and not tied to a given content type like the Featured Search Results are. You can, though, have both a Handcrafted Search and one or more Featured Search Results for the same keyword(s).
There is a Page called "Handcrafted Search Hidden Page" that is a child of the Homepage in each locale. This should already be set up in your site. In the Navigation of this page, you will add the Page associated with your Handcrafted Search Result banner. Note, this Page is not intended to show anywhere on the site. It is simply the way the result banner is built in order to display on the top of the search results.
To create a Handcrafted Search result you will need to create a Page that includes your SE003 (or historically the SE001 or SE002) in the main section of the Placement. The instructions for the SE003 (and the SE001 and SE002) are included in the Content Author's Guide. While a Page Title is not used, it is required in the Page. Additionally, you will need to set a URL for the page on the Metadata Tab.
