How to customize the site-finder page

[luiscesarinfo]

Hi guys,

I made some changes in creating / editing sites by adding a new field. This field will work as a categorization and is a simple text field and I am using an aspect to add this new field.
Now I would like to customize the page of the site-finder so that when the user enters the name of the site, the result will be grouped by the new field and it looks like the example below:

Category X1
Site name 1	[Delete]	[Leave]
Site name 2	[Delete]	[Leave]

Category X2
Site name 3	[Delete]	[Leave]
Site name 4	[Delete]	[Leave]
Site name 5	[Delete]	[Leave]

Which files should I change or add and where should I put these files?
I'm using alfresco community 5.0.d

Thanks in advance.

My recommendation: Do not try to customise the existing page. Instead create a completely separate one (e.g. based on Aikau). That way, you avoid any issues with upgrades when the base page is changed and can quickly switch between the default and custom type if necessary. You only need to change the header menu to direct the menu entry to a different URL to call your custom page.

The type of change you intend is very broad in scope, i.e. you are not changing a minor detail but the complete appearance of the page.
