Overview
WooCommerce Product Search adds live product discovery to a WooCommerce store. Shoppers can see matching products as they type, including images and prices, and add items to their cart from the search results. Live filters let them narrow results by keywords, price range, categories, tags, and product attributes, helping them locate relevant items across a store catalog.
The plugin indexes products automatically and updates its index when products are added, changed, or removed. Store owners can use search analytics to see what customers look for, which products they find, and where inventory gaps may exist. Blocks, widgets, and shortcodes provide ways to place search fields, filters, and product grids on store pages.
Features
- Live product results: Display matching products as shoppers type, with product images and prices, plus an option to add items to the cart from the results.
- Dynamic search filters: Let shoppers narrow results in real time using keywords, price range, categories, tags, and product attributes.
- Automatic product indexing: Index store products automatically and update the search index when products are added, modified, or removed.
- Visual filter options: Use thumbnail images, color swatches, icons, and logos to represent categories, brands, sizes, and other product options.
- Search behavior insights: Review what customers search for, which products they find, and what may be missing from inventory.
- Flexible page placement: Add live search fields, filters, and product grids to site pages using blocks, widgets, and shortcodes.
