SSR support for results pages #673

Open janoschherrmann opened 2 years ago

janoschherrmann commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Kind of. I run a website where I would love for some search results pages to rank in Google. Currently, these pages aren't being indexed by Google, presumably because the content isn't rendered server-side.

Describe the solution you'd like I'd love to have the option for search results pages to be generated server-side, so that they would be picked up by search engines. I'm using NextJS, so having a way to combine Search UI and Next for SSR would be awesome.

Describe alternatives you've considered The current alternative as described by @joemcelroy on Slack would be interact with the Search API directly, instead of using Search UI.

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

Hello, I encountered the same issue as described above. Could you please provide an update on the progress of this problem? Thank you!

Hi there - there hasn't been any progress yet. We have big changes planned soon for Search UI and will share soon.

If you need SSR support today, its worth looking into building your own components, using the app-search-javascript client in a SSR framework like next.js.

If you're using Elasticsearch directly, another alternative is using searchkit which with instantsearch, supports SSR.
