        [CMS-4602] [Search] If no criteria are specified and the search field is empty, there should be no result rather than all results

        After 5 years of reflexions, I keep my opinion : launching an empty search that return everything is better.
        I hate websites that answer : "enter at least one criteria"

        The checkbox is a good idea

        I think this is a question of opinion. And maybe it was previously the case. But I think having many results is better to help the visitor... specially on small sites.

        The only possibility would be to add a checkbox on service parameters to choose if empty search means all results or no results.
