Create a view based search page for content types #196

Currently, browsing through content types, like "News" or "Innovation Stories" relies on a custom module, called the "archive" module. It allows for filtering by year and month. However, we're getting more requests to be able to provide filters on various fields of each content type.

We need to spend time to figure out how to set up views that provide search forms for filtering the nodes based on other fields of the content.

This is possible by creating views of the content types with exposed filters and contextual filters.
