collective.cse

This product integrates the Google Custom Search Engine (https://cse.google.com) into Plone

Features

• Own search results page
• Overrides the search viewlet to redirect to the cse search results.
• Ability to use the Javascript provided by GCS, or the use of the Google API

Installation

Install collective.cse by adding it to your buildout:

[buildout]

...

eggs =
    collective.cse

and then running bin/buildout

Usage

1. Create a Custom Search Engine in https://cse.google.com/cse/all
2. Make sure under "Look and feel" you choose "Results only" (You can customize the rest as desired)
3. Go to Plone's Site Setup and access the "Google Custom Search Engine Settings" tool
4. Enter your provided Search engine ID.

Now your site searches will use the Custom Search Engine you created.

Styling

The search results page that uses the Google API, has css classes applied assuming your project will be using Bootstrap. There is no CSS provided, so it is easier to integrate this view in your project.
