Hi, I am wondering about the search results page in joomla. I would like it to display search results featuring the searched key word like the home page wall is displayed, rather than a text list of results as is the joomla default, is this possible?

I see that on your WordPress sister implementation, when you search it returns results in the fashion:

http://demo.designwall.com/#wallpress
http://demo.designwall.com/#dw-wall

thanks

@ xumbrella,

JA Wall does not support grid display for search result. You can get this with following customisation:*

<?php
/**
** @package Joomla.Site
** @subpackage com_search
** @copyright Copyright (C) 2005 - 2014 Open Source Matters, Inc. All rights reserved.
** @license GNU General Public License version 2 or later; see LICENSE.txt
**/

// no direct access
defined('_JEXEC') or die;
?>

<div id="masonry-container" class="search-results<?php echo $this->pageclass_sfx; ?>">
<?php foreach($this->results as $result) : ?>
<div class="item">

<div class="inner item-inner clearfix">
<div class="item-main clearfix">
<div class="header item-header clearfix">
<h2 class="result-title">
<?php echo $this->pagination->limitstart + $result->count.'. ';?>
<?php if ($result->href) :?>
<a href="<?php echo JRoute::_($result->href); ?>"<?php if ($result->browsernav == 1) :?> target="_blank"<?php endif;?>>
<?php echo $this->escape($result->title);?>
</a>
<?php else:?>
<?php echo $this->escape($result->title);?>
<?php endif; ?>
</h2>
</div>

<?php if ($result->section) : ?>
<div class="category-name">
<span class="small<?php echo $this->pageclass_sfx; ?>">
(<?php echo $this->escape($result->section); ?>)
</span>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<div class="content item-content">
<?php echo $result->text; ?>
</div>

<?php if ($this->params->get('show_date')) : ?>
<div class="footer item-footer clearfix">
<div class="result-created<?php echo $this->pageclass_sfx; ?>">
<?php echo JText::sprintf('JGLOBAL_CREATED_DATE_ON', $result->created); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</div>

<?php
// Build the additional URL parameters string.
$urlparams = '';
if (!empty($this->pagination->_additionalUrlParams))
{
foreach ($this->pagination->_additionalUrlParams as $key => $value)
{
$urlparams .= '&' . $key . '=' . $value;
}
}
$next = $this->pagination->get('pages.current') * $this->pagination->limit;
$nextlink = JRoute::_($urlparams . '&' . $this->pagination->prefix . 'limitstart=' . $next);
?>

<div id="page-nav">
<a id="page-next-link" href="<?php echo $nextlink ?>"></a>
</div>


Above is the code to override the default search result to have a grid alike result.

You can put the php script into the htmlcom_searchdefault_results.php file.*

For your convenience, I attached the source file here also:
Please extract to templatesja_wallhtmlcom_search directory.*

Hope it helps.*
