Hello! I'm trying to replace my current search bar, located in the header of my React app, using SearchBox from SearchUI. When a user clicks a match I use onSelectAutocomplete to apply some custom logic to decide what page I redirect them to, which works fine. But if the user types a partial match and hits enter, I would like to collect all the results and redirect him to a search page, where I display all the results with facets. I can't figure out how I can get the results so I can forward the user to the search page. ```auto handleSearch(searchTerm)} onSelectAutocomplete={searchTerm => handleSearch(searchTerm)} autocompleteMinimumCharacters={3} autocompleteResults={{ sectionTitle: 'Results', titleField: 'name', shouldTrackClickThrough: true, }} autocompleteSuggestions={{ sectionTitle: 'Suggested Queries', }} /> ``` Also, is there a way to add two fields with custom formatting to titleField? eg. 'name - description' Any help will be very much appreciated. Thanks! ---

Hey @adrian_es, You should be able to override the `onSubmit` function to redirect the customer to the search page, providing the query in the url. [Autocomplete | Elastic docs](https://docs.elastic.co/search-ui/solutions/ecommerce/autocomplete#integrating-the-searchbox) ```ts { window.location.href = `${PATH_TO_YOUR_SEARCH_PAGE}?q=${searchTerm}`; }} /> ``` ---

Hi, @ [joemcelroy](https://discuss.elastic.co/u/joemcelroy)! Thank you for the fast reply. So if I redirect them to the search page, I need to do another search, not use the existing results? And one more unrelated question: after the redirect, the search term is not cleared from SearchBox. Can you please tell me how I can clear the search term? Thanks! ---

So the example I shared above is where the search box is present globally on the site and the `onSubmit` handler will navigate the user to the global search page. On the search page, the search experience has the search term populated, to reflect the search state. Is there a reason why you dont want the searchbox to reflect what is the search state? Joe ---

It makes sense to leave the search term in the search box while on the global search page, but if I navigate away from the search page, the search term still remains in the SearchBox. In this case, I would like to clear the search term. Thanks for all the rapid replies! I have two final questions if you are still able to help, although it's not related to the topic: 1. is there a way to add two fields with custom formatting to SearchBox titleField? eg. 'name - description' 2. The facets currently show fields that have empty strings, is there a way to exclude them? And thanks again! ---

Hey sorry missed this reply! 1- Could you explain more on how you want it to be custom formatted, potentially a screenshot of what you want? 2 - is there a way you can stop indexing empty values into the field? Its not ideal to exclude them at presentation. joe ---

Hey @joemcelroy , 1. the SearchBox autocompleteResults titleField seems to accept only one field. But I would like to display two fields. "field1 - field2". If I have: ```auto { field1: "foo", field2: "bar", } ``` When I search for 'foo', I would like to display in the search results: "foo - bar". As a workaround, I added an extra field that has both values in the format above. Was just wondering if there's a better way to do this. 1. fixed that by replacing empty values with null. 2. The thing I couldn't figure out, how to clear the search term from the SearchBox. If I navigate away from the search page, the search term isn't cleared from my SearchBox. Thanks! ---
