Standard search listings can be built using existing attributes (vocabularies) in the CMS taxonomy (e.g. a news listing, a grants listing, a search of all publications in a site section). To use other (non-existing/new) attributes/vocabularies, additional custom work is required.
Currently the Search listing content type/template is only available to Site admins and Admins so search listings for sites using the content.vic.gov.au CMS must be built by the SDP team - even very simple ones such as News listings.
CMS editors and approvers can use the Content collection component in the Landing page content type for similar functionality. However, the content collection will only display the latest 9 results.
Live examples
Examples of custom search listings on vic.gov.au include:
Grants and programs - with custom filters: target audience, status and topic
Victorian Honour Roll of Women - with custom filters: category, induction year, field of expertise, location
Family violence recommendations - with custom filters: category, department/agency and status
Emergency recovery resource portal - with 8 custom filters: section, resource type, recovery environment, subject, audience, owner and recovery environment
Information Safety Entity list search - uses a CSV to display organisation data in a responsive data table

topic (subtopic to come)
