Description
Currently, when I click on a search result, the main content area changed—but the sidebar stays where it is.
It would be helpful if the sidebar could automatically scroll to the corresponding section (or highlight it) when a search result is selected. This would make navigation more intuitive and keep the sidebar in sync with the viewed content.

Research direction
No file or test is named in the issue. Start by locating the search-result selection flow and the sidebar navigation for the documentation site, then reproduce the mismatch and trace how the selected section is identified. Done means selecting a result brings the corresponding sidebar section into view or clearly highlights it, without breaking existing navigation.
