Description

Discussed in 5/23/2022 EDA UX meeting

Currently, if you’ve applied filters and then search for a new term, the previous filters are retained

“Clear filters” button is currently in the search bar. There is also a “Clear filters” button on the left panel. Both of these are very easy to miss and not where a user will look for them

Perhaps it is better to return more than less (ie, remove previously applied filters automatically when the user searches for a new term)

We should also use the vectorBase model, which puts more information into the heading of the site search results (For ex: “All results matching “weight”, filtered by “XX”)

We can also put the clear filters button next to the heading for the site search results

We can consider adding chips into the search bar (document filter chip, fields matched chip…)
