A recent assignment was to adjust the hover panel of search results. At the bottom, the footer, a menu item was wished for.<\/p>\n

The displaytemplate involved here was Item_CommonHoverPanel_Actions. This displaytemplate is responsible for displaying the menu items at the bottom of the hover.<\/p>\n

On an on prem environment the footer consists of an Edit menu item which consists of a dropdown with items like Download and Open in browser, and Follow, Send and View in library menu items as can be seen in figure 1.<\/p>\n

\"search_item_commonhoverpanel_actions\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Figure 1 – out of the box footer menu<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To add a menu item at the bottom a copy of this file was made, MyItem_CommonHoverPanel_Actions, without adding the custom link for now, just to make sure everything works without customizing. In an appropriate display template a link to this new actions file can be set\/overridden by using the HP.CommonActions property:<\/p>\n

\r\nif (typeof HP === "undefined") {\r\nSP.SOD.executeFunc("searchui.js", "HP_initialize", function () {\r\nHP.CommonActions = "~sitecollection\/_catalogs\/masterpage\/Search\/Display Templates\/Custom Displaytemplates\/MyItem_CommonHoverPanel_Actions.js";\r\n});\r\n}\r\n<\/pre>\n
The changed displaytemplate is set to the Word resulttype and after refreshing the search results page the footer from MyItem_CommonHoverPanel_Actions can be seen in the hover panel, but\u2026 the edit dropdown is gone! Without even changing anything in the copied file!<\/p>\n
\"search_myitem_commonhoverpanel_actions\"<\/a><\/p>\n
Figure 2 – copy of the out of the box footer menu<\/p>\n
The html generates an accompanying js file where the rendering of the dropdown is present at the original Item_CommonHoverPanel_Actions, but not at MyItem_CommonHoverPanel_Actions.<\/p>\n
It seems this file generates different js once it\u2019s copied, renamed and\/or replaced without making any adjustment in the file itself!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Fortunately there\u2019s another way to adjust the menu items in the footer AND keep the Edit dropdown.<\/p>\n
An item template loads a specific hoverpanel. In this file calls to render the header, body and footer are made. The rendering of the footer loads the Item_CommonHoverPanel_Actions, which we\u2019re not going to touch.<\/p>\n
\r\n<div id="_#= $htmlEncode(id + HP.ids.actions) =#_" class="ms-srch-hover-actions">\r\n_#= ctx.RenderFooter(ctx) =#_\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/pre>\n
A new menu item can be rendered before or after the out of the box footer.<\/p>\n
I was unable to reproduce this behavior in an online environment. Online the edit dropdown isn\u2019t shown (or rendered in the accompanying js file) at all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
