Local Search

Local search requires no external account. Keep the custom Search output enabled so Hugo generates /search.xml.

outputs:
  home: [HTML, RSS, Search, Links]

params:
  solitude:
    search:
      enable: true
      type: local
      local:
        preload: false
        CDN: /search.xml

Use a same-origin path unless you intentionally publish the index to a CDN. Rebuild and request /search.xml directly before debugging the search dialog.
