## Summary

Drop-in inline search for Framer CMS col

## Description

## In-Line CMS Searchbar

The **In-Line CMS Searchbar** is a drop-in Framer component that lets users instantly filter CMS content directly on the page. Instead of sending visitors to a separate search page or modal, this component keeps search **inline**, fast, and intuitive—perfect for CMS grids and directories.

As users type, CMS items update in real time, making it easy to find content without scrolling or reloading the page.

## Key Features

-   **Instant CMS filtering**Filters CMS collections live as users type.
    
-   **Inline placement**Sits directly above your CMS grid or list—no popups or overlays.
    
-   **Case-insensitive search**Matches results regardless of capitalization.
    
-   **Clean, minimal UI**Designed to blend naturally into modern Framer layouts.
    
-   **Drop-in ready**No custom code required.
    

## Best Use Cases

-   CMS directories
    
-   Resource libraries
    
-   Blog or article collections
    
-   Product grids
    
-   FAQ or knowledge bases
    
-   Any CMS list where quick discovery matters
    

## How to Use

### 1\. Place the Component

Add **CMSInlineSearch** to the **same section/frame** as your CMS collection.

**Important:**The search bar must live in the **same parent container** as the CMS list it filters.

### 2\. Positioning (Recommended)

Inside your layout:

1.  Page heading (optional)
    
2.  **CMSInlineSearch**
    
3.  CMS collection (grid or list)
    

This ensures the search feels native and filters correctly.

### 3\. Layout Tips

-   Set the search bar width to **Fill**
    
-   Set the CMS collection width to **Fill**
    
-   Keep both inside the same container to maintain alignment
    
-   Works best in a vertical Stack or column layout
    

## Responsive Behavior

-   Fully responsive across Desktop, Tablet, and Phone
    
-   Scales naturally with your CMS layout
    
-   Adjust spacing per breakpoint if needed
    

## Notes & Requirements

-   Must be used with a **Framer CMS collection**
    
-   The search will only filter CMS items within the same parent frame
    
-   Designed for inline filtering—not full-page search results
    

## Why Inline Search?

Inline search keeps users focused and reduces friction. Instead of navigating away or scanning long lists, visitors can type and instantly see relevant results—cleaner UX, faster discovery, better engagement.
