Hi,
I need to be able to use the new eCom search feature in my page template.
I've tryed using Global:paragraph.content and the Include option.
The template load's but without outputting the filter options.
How is this done?

Make shure eCommerce Search Extended is installed.
7.2 comes with standard templates including the new search functionality.
You can find detailed information on how to set it up right here:

To add filters in your template, just add a tag with the name of your filter, like @MyFilter

Hi Morten,
None of the documentations describes the use of eCom filters in the pageTemplate. I works like it should when a eCom modules is applied. I permanently wan't it on every page on my site. Thats why am trying to get it to work on the pageTemplate

Sorry for borrowing your thread :)
I've been trying to work with the new search possibilities as well. But it's not working at all, even a standard search doesn't work. The solution have Productsearch (extended) installed.
But I guess I'm in need of some basic documentation on how to implement this module (productsearch (extended)), the right way.
Do any of you know where to find this? Since I haven't been lucky browsing engage, dynamic, google and so on.
(Haven't tried to implement a search module before on dynamic)

Hello everybody,
Let me clarify things a bit:
1. Search filters cannot be used outside of the scope of the eCom catalog module.
2. You can use Instant search & suggested queries in your page template (either by copying the contents of your search template and pasting it into your page template or by using some other technique, like "Include" tag) but this will require a minor changes to be made in the search template (you need to point the client-side library to the page and the paragraph with the eCom module).
These posts might help you to get started with the new search:

2. http://volpav.wordpress.com/2010/11/17/new-search-in-dynamicweb-ecommerce-filters/
3. http://volpav.wordpress.com/2010/11/23/new-search-in-dynamicweb-instant-search-and-suggested-queries/
Usually people forget to update their index before performing a search so make sure that it's up-to-date (you can check it my going to Management Center -> eCommerce settings -> Advanced configuration -> Searching).
