Users should be able to filter search results by type (post, user or hashtag).
User Problem
Having all search results displayed on a single page can be overwhelming and unnecessary when a user already knows they are interested in posts only.
Implementation
Similar to the search results page filter on facebook: with clickable tabs on top of the page.
- By default the
alltab should be selected and display all types of results. - There should be tabs for
posts,usersandhashtags– by selecting one of them the displayed search results are limited to results of that type. - Fetched search results should be cached in the frontend to enable quick navigation between the tabs – and avoid re-fetching of the same data.
Design & Layout
Missing! The tabs on the user profile could be an inspiration:
