Canning Search Results

To 'can' search results (force a desired search term), use the Search Term optional setting. This optional field will force a search term or terms into the search field when a user clicks on a Menu 'Link' to a 'Search Results' Menu Item.

For example, a user clicks a Menu Item called, 'More Joomla Articles'. The search term field could contain the word, Joomla. The filled optional field would show the search component page with the word Joomla pre-filled in the search field and showing the results of 'Joomla' searched on the website.
