Search overview
Two flavors of search ship with Docsio.
Built-in keyboard search (Free + Pro)
Press Cmd+K (Mac) or Ctrl+K (Windows) on any docs page to open a quick search modal. Searches page titles and headings.
Always available. No setup. Indexes automatically on every publish.
Full-text search bar (Pro)
A search bar prominent at the top of every page. Searches the full text of every page (not just titles), with highlighted snippets in results.
Which to use
- If your docs are small (under 30 pages), keyboard search is plenty.
- If your docs are big (50+ pages) and visitors actively search, the full-text bar finds things keyboard search misses.
Visitor experience
Search is fast (~50ms typical). Results show with the title, the parent category, and a snippet of where the match was found. Click → straight to the page, scrolled to the relevant section.
Mobile-friendly. Works in dark mode.
