Theme Your Drupal Search Results Page Using a View

Want to make your Search Results page match a view you've already themed and formatted?  Good news! You can do this pretty easily with just a few steps.

2) Under Advanced >> Contextual Filters, select "Search:Search Terms"  (Be sure to change this ONLY for this display and not all displays)

3) In the Page Settings section, set the Path to /search/node/%

My end result:
