Chapter 1: Collaborating with SharePoint
SharePoint then searches for the search text over the range of site compo-
nents designated by the Scope drop-down list. If the program doesn’t find any
matches, it displays a Search Results page with the message No Results
Matching Your Search Were Found. You can then refine your search
text and use it to conduct another (hopefully, more successful) search.
If SharePoint does find matches for the search text, the program then lists
them — arranged by their weighted significance to the search text — on the
first of possibly many Search Results pages. Each match in this list contains a
live link that you can then click to jump directly to that page on your
SharePoint site.
Above the list of search results, you can find the total number of matches
found to your search text and links to individual Search Results pages (if
these matches require multiple pages). This area also contains a View by
Modified Date link that you can click to sort the matches by the date that
their pages were lasted edited (from most to least recent) rather than by
their relevance to the search text.
Figure 1-10 shows you the first Search Results page that SharePoint returned
after I searched on my site with book cover as the search text. This first
Search Results page displays the top ten matches (out of close to 120 total)
to this search text. And to open the Book Cover meeting page referred to in
the first match, all I have to do is click its link.
