Testing Instructions:
Hide

Log in as admin

Search for various strings via the admin search feature - e.g. words like "user", "lang", "setting" etc.

TEST: Make sure the location of the found page within the administration tree menu is displayed below its title

TEST: Make sure the location is rendered adequately to how the main breadcrumb navigation trail is rendered in the given theme and language (i.e. using the same separator between the nodes).

Please test in both Clean and Boost themes, in a LTR and RTL language (such as Hebrew).

Thanks for your time.

Description

There is a problem I often run into when using the admin search feature. The search results page shows just the titles of the found matching pages / sections but not their location within the admin tree. In certain cases, we even have multiple admin pages with the same title - making it impossible to distinguish which is which.

Steps to reproduce

Go to https://demo.moodle.net/admin/search.php and log in as an admin
Search for "general settings"

Expected behaviour: I should be able to uniquely identify each of matching pages / sections
Actual behaviour: Two "General settings" pages are found. No easy way to distinguish which is for what part of the administration tree.
