Has anyone created their own search tile?

bcarpenter@reliaslearning.com Mar 29, 2016 9:46 AM

We're in the process of migrating to cloud and would love to switch over to tiles instead of widgets. However, using search is a key part of our community. Has anyone developed their own search tile and would be willing to share it?

Thanks!

Do you have access to the Jive Customers space? Kim Nelson shared this video (comment on the below blog post) of a search tile they have built:

  Whoa...that's AWESOME. Thanks Joey! I did do a search for "search tile" but this didn't come up.

    Ah, yes - I searched in Brewspace (Jive internal) first and found a link to the blog post there. But now that you have seen Adam Mertz 's post, you should bookmark it or follow that space!

      Absolutely. I've got that saved, bookmarked, dog eared, and every other way I can remember it.

    Hey Brett,
    Glad Joey was able to point you to the right place, and just wanted to say that it was great to meet you briefly in person at JiveWorld over breakfast (where I think I helped save you and the table from the barrage of hard line questions that financial analyst person was throwing out).
    
    Cheers,
    Adam

We created our own Search Widget (but it was an HTML widget which means it could work with an HTML Tile) to help provide a better Federated Search experience.

    I can share the HTML if you want -- but it is coded for our external site (s)

      That'd be awesome if you could! We can certainly tailor it to our needs.

        Hi Sergia !
        We ended up building our own custom tile (by we I mean our awesome web developer team). You can see it in action on this page:
        https://connect.reliaslearning.com/community/social-discussions
        
        It works very similar to the ask a question widget but in tile format. This one starts a discussion. We also have another that starts a question.

Social Edge created a search tile for us - you can see it here: https://community.mapr.com
It is on the home/news pages but also configured to search slightly differently on the spaces in the community as well. It is loading very slowly and I'm looking into that right now.

    No, it is a custom tile that social edge could explain how they built. John Reynolds @
