Comment:

 I really like Mel's solution for displaying the code type (eg.
 '''Function''') and I like the more standard blue color for the links. But
 what this mockup doesn't account for are the functions, etc. that include
 parameters http://developer.wordpress.dev/?s=post. I don't think the
 current colors to differentiate the parameters and function names are
 right, but I do think it makes sense to have multiple colors for them.

 I also really like the filtering system, and I think it would be good to
 integrate them into the reference landing page as well rather than
 displaying all types by default and requiring users to filter them only
 after the search.

 I made a patch for #493 that adds a smaller search form to the header of
 internal pages. But if we use this sidebar filter, it would make more
 sense to place this smaller search form in that sidebar.

 I don't see much value for displaying the full URL. I think simply showing
 the title, type and description would be great.
