Simple search form

2,878 sites Security covered
View on drupal.org

This module provides a basic search form that immediately redirects the user to a specified page with the search term included as a GET parameter, bypassing Drupal's standard two-step form submission process. It's useful for creating simple search functionalities that pass data directly to another page or integrate with modules like Search API Autocomplete.

ABOUT:

This module implements a simple form with text input and submit button. It allows to immediate redirect the user to a page with a GET parameter. e.g.: /some-site-page?myparam=sometext.
Usual Drupal form submission works in 2 steps, it means on form submit we have 2 executions of a page:

  • 1st: Send form data to Drupal side to run form submit handler (page on which form located)
  • 2nd: Redirect user to some page (if redirect was set, page which was set to redirect to)

Simple search form works without form submission on Drupal side and executes 2nd step only.
Integrated with Search API Autocomplete

USE CASES:

  • Simple search form where user enter some text, presses submit button and lands to views search page like /search?search_api_fulltext=usertext
  • Form which redirects user to some page (webform, custom, e.t.c.) which expects some GET parameter

INSTALLATION:

  1. Install the module to modules/contrib or modules folder
  2. Enable Simple search form module
