Inserting the Search Results Widgets

Warning
Do not insert widgets within the form of an article. An error will cause the article to not appear Online.
Information
The Search Results Widgets can only be inserted into Body with Search articles.
Hint
A default image (e.g. your company logo) should be created and saved with the file name default-search-image.png in the AudienceView\UI\Online\Branding folder. When using the Search Results Widget - Align Horizontally and Search Results Widget - Align Vertically options, the 'Logo1' field entry is pulled from the sellable item and displayed in the search results. If an image was not added to the 'Logo1' field of a particular item, the default-search-image.png image will display instead.
