Flynax,

Please consider to build "Smart Suggestion Search Plugin" for better search experience.
When users search for some keywords; the Smart Search will provide a suggestion list with available categories.

See example here: http://jamesskidmore.com/scripts/smartsuggest/

Hello,

We have something like this already but in just one template

http://general.demoflynax.com/
template clear sky

you can try big search in header, it gives some smart suggestions when you start typing something.

Thanks for info Mike.

Works great, but limited to listings suggestion only: http://general.demoflynax.com/?template=general_sky
It will be more convenient to suggest Categories rather than listings.

I’m wondering why this function is not included in other templates.

Hi Viktor,
I would like to suggest following features for this project:

1. Multiple keywords
Add a field for multiple keywords entry, in order to search for category using variety of keywords.
For example, single category “Cars” can be identified under following keyword searches: car, cars, auto, automobile, etc.

2. Searching parameters


All words in any order
Any words in any order
Exact match


3. Stop words
Add additional field to block particular keywords or phrases from search results based on category level.
For instance you don’t want certain category to show up in search results using particular keywords.

4. Search statistics
Save all searches in database. It will help to analyze any missing categories or keywords.

Rite now this is showing the keyword search which shows me incorrect results when I search by city as the city name appeared in listing details too.is there a way to limit search by city/location.
Is there a way to get rid of search on multiple pages.search box on Homepage would take care of .can we achieve this?
It would be a great help.
