Weblic®: Full text search

This weblic contains two structural elements that can be inserted by the administrator. On the one hand, only a search field can be used, which can be placed on a page to save space and calls up the search result when it is sent. On the other hand, a search field including a search result list is available for insertion. The search result can be restricted to any area and the number of results per page can be set to 3 - 100 entries.
