Group search results

I'm not aware of grouping capabilities, but you could try to sort them by page type, so the pages of the same type will go together. You can also use another fields in sort expression, so pages will be sorted by type and name for example.

Not quite sure what you mean by grouping. You can probably use smart search results in conjunction with ht smart search filter web part. In my case I use smart search filter to show documents by categories, but you can filter by any property in your index. So if your indexes have several page types, you can filter by page types. https://docs.kentico.com/display/K8/Using+search+filters

Hi Roman, Peter,

For information. I use Kentico 9. I want to look the search results like this:

Cateory A:

Link1

Link2

Link 3

More results

Category B Link a

Link b

Link c

More results

etc, etc etc

Is this possible?

This is possible with custom control. Use smart search API to achieve this.

Sure it is possible, but it depends on your set-up. For ex.: You can create a custom field "mysearchsort" make it "indexible" for your page types. Order smart search results by "mysearchsort".

If is a good practice to use luke (lucene index tool box) - to see what is inside your index. You might want to use fields which already exists, instead of creating your own.

In transformation when you render search results you can save mysearchsort in RequestStockObject. On each iteration you check it and if your current mysearchsort is different from the one you saved in RequestStockObject you render you category title "Category X:"
