Re: SearchAction vs FindAction, and OpenSearch totalResults equivalent

Hi Jarno,

thanks a lot for taking the time to work out a solution! 

So you’re using an ItemList which allows you to use the numberOfItems property. Makes sense to me.

I don’t think I fully understand why you went with a top-level ItemList (linked to a SearchResultsPage via mainEntityOfPage) instead of a top-level SearchAction with an ItemList in its result property. What was your reasoning behind that? (I’m a schema.org newbie, so I’m probably missing something obvious.)

Thanks again,
Tim
