Search#

The Search component allows users to search for Storyteller Clips and Stories. As users type, a list of suggestions will appear, from which users can either select a suggestion or search using their entered term. Results are categorized into two sections: Stories and Clips, based on their type. Filters allow users to narrow down their search results, enabling them to find specific content that meets their criteria more efficiently. For instance, users can apply filters such as date posted, content type or they can sort it by certain criteria.
