Description:
Mock up showing the category list for this search result.

When search results are displayed, it would be very helpful to have category information displayed as part of each result. This will give the viewer information, at a glance, about what type of page each search result is. The recommendation is to put that information in brackets on the line showing KB/words and last revision date.

Mock-up shown in attachment.
