Changing Sidebar Elements
Sidebar elements include search results from Google Apps or Google Site Search. By default, the
search results page does not display sidebar elements. Using the Page Layout Helper, you can choose
whether to hide or show sidebar elements. You cannot show sidebar elements along with dynamic
navigation or dynamic result clusters side view.
To show results from Google Apps, you must enable indexing public content or integrating personal
content by using the Cloud Connect > Google Apps page. To show results from Google Site Search, you
must provide a search engine identifier.
Note: Google will not be supporting Twitter integration after the retirement of Twitter’s v1 REST API on
June 11, 2013.

Changing Result Listing Elements
Each result listing on a search results page can include the following elements:
• Result title length
• Snippet
• URL
• Page size
• Modified date
• Cache link
By default, the search results page includes all of these elements. The search result page figure (see
“Getting Started with Customizing the User Interface” on page 91) includes most of these elements, but
omits the URL.
Using the Page Layout Helper, you can choose whether to show or hide any of these result listing
elements. To change other aspects of these elements, such as font color, use the XSLT Stylesheet Editor
(see “Customizing the User Interface in the XSLT Stylesheet” on page 100).
