Seems to work fine on home, but on other pages it redirects back to home before opening the modal.

From @akeshiiv:

Search feature interaction issues

  • Clicking the search feature causes the background to reset to the homepage when the input field gains focus.
  • You can either correct the functionality to retain the current page view when interacting with the search feature, or make the changes stated below 👇

Clarity between events vs interviews

  • Users may not be able to distinguish between articles related to Events and Interviews using the search feature since the results all look the same.
    • This lack of clarity can confuse users and may discourage event registration by diminishing the perceived value of participation
    • The lack of distinction is further reinforced by the similar interface design for interviews and events.
  • Recommendation:
    • Clearly label articles as either Event or Interview.
    • OR: place search feature within the events / interviews page to avoid confusion. The ‘Select Industry’ can be a filter function.

Also see @akeshiiv feedback:

Search feature placement

  • The search feature is available across all pages but is most relevant for Events and Interviews. e.g. Search queries usually yield results like Conversations, Insights, or Reflections articles.
  • Pages like About Us, Mentorship, and Teams contain minimal information, making search results from these pages unnecessary and potentially confusing.
  • Recommendation: Restrict the search feature to Events and Interviews pages to align with user needs and prevent irrelevant results.
