Autocomplete options

Enable autocomplete

Autocomplete options are offered for all the products search controls. Tick the Enable autocomplete checkbox to see the list of options that control the display of the products search suggestions box.

Apply filters to autocomplete results

Enable this checkbox when you wish for your autocomplete suggestions to respect the filters that are currently activated on the page. A Red color filter applied to the page will be influencing the suggestions list that will display only the red products with titles and descriptions containing the current keywords.

The autocomplete search will listen to the activated filters even before they are actually submitted. This allows the creation of complex search bars, in which the user can pre-select other filters (for example, categories or tags) when performing the string search.
