The base file should contain no custom JavaScript since it is inherited in almost all files in GN2. It should only include what is necessary. As a result, we need to move the global search from the base file to the index page, which renders the GN2 home.

• [] Remove global search code from the base file and move it to the index page
• [] Fix formatting and linting issues in the base file (e.g., tags)
• [] Inherit from index page for all gn2 templates

See the PR that seeks to fix this:

It was agreed that global search should be a feature for all pages, As such all files need to inherit from the global search which defines the global search.
