Hi, That sentence didn’t make sense and I don’t see how there would be a box within a box. Can you please attach a screenshot of what you’re seeing that I’m not. Thank you.

[rsae]

Thanks for the reply. Under Theme Options, I only see a Custom CSS area (under “General Options”). Where can I find the “Custom JS” area?

[rsae]

Thanks, we already use that one. Again, the problem is with the Neighborhood theme. While Relevanssi can search by product tag, it doesn’t integrate with the predictive search built into Neighborhood. Therefore, when a user types in text, it claims “no matches found” and they have to hit return to actually see results. This is a flawed UI and most people will think there are no matches for their search. How do we either integrate Relevanssi with the predictive search built into Neighborhood or turn it off?

You recommended this in April and a few of already reported it didn’t work with the Neighborhood — it doesn’t search product tags. Did something change and now it works properly?

We use 2 other themes for our other storefronts and don’t have this problem. Would appreciate if more attention could be given to product tag search — such an important thing for us shop owners.

[rsae]

Thanks for the prompt reply. The predictive search is built into Neighborhood, so it will automatically come up with the “no products found” when typing in a search. As I noted above, general search breaks the page with the plugin you recommended. The results are scattered thumbnails. So unfortunately, this is still not a viable solution.

[rsae]

The search plugin you noted still doesn’t work. It shows “no results” for the predictive search and then breaks the page when clicking enter. Any idea when you guys will get a proper search worked out or be able to integrate with a premium search like WooCommerce Predictive Search Pro?

[rsae]

Interesting. Please post if this works out for you!

We couldn’t use Woocommerce Predictive Search on our site using the Neighborhood theme because of the aforementioned problems. We’re currently using the Neighborhood default search until this issue is resolved, which means search on our site is essentially useless (which is incredibly disappointing).

We’ve used Woocommerce Predictive Search on 2 other woocommerce-powered websites (using other themes) and it’s awesome. It works exactly as it should.

[rsae]

This was a very generic and unhelpful answer. I already noted that I (and other people on this forum) have tried 2 of the top paid “search by tag” plug-ins that do not work because of how Neighborhood was coded (they work perfectly in other themes we have tried).

I am well aware WordPress doesn’t natively search by tags, but I also expect to be able to use a premium Woocommerce-specific search plug-in with a premium Woocommerce-specific theme.

Would appreciate if you forward this to the developer:

Ed — we think a lot of people could benefit by being able to search by product tag. After all, many stores have custom named items. Being able to search only if you know the exact title of the product isn’t very helpful or useful for our customers. And plug-ins like Predictive Search Pro (the best — which we paid for and can’t use with Neighborhood) and Relevanissi (pretty good) don’t integrate into the Neighborhood search.

[rsae]

Appreciate the attempt, but that plug-in didn’t work. I still get the “NO RESULTS
No search results could be found, please try another query.” in the Ajax “live” search and the actual search results page showed products that weren’t related to the query and displayed in a jumbled mess.

Any other ideas or fixes?

Thanks!

[rsae]

Nope! Couldn’t figure out how to implement “search by product tag”. Even tried the plug-in Relevanissi. However, since Neighborhood’s search page is built with multiple call to query_posts(), it blocks other plug-ins (the search results shows “0” results on all queries).

Again, Ed — we think a lot of people could benefit by being able to search by product tag. After all, many stores have custom named items. Being able to search only if you know the exact title of the product isn’t very helpful or useful for our customers. And plug-ins like Predictive Search Pro (the best — which we paid for and can’t use with Neighborhood) and Relevanissi (pretty good) don’t integrate into the Neighborhood search.

Appreciate the consideration and (hopefully quick) solution…

Thank you!

Just missing the other half of my question:

Is there any way to make the search icon functional as a “submit” button?

[rsae]

Also, just one last thing: the drop-down menu that shows the search results as you type is now transparent so it’s difficult to read. Did I miss something in the CSS that made this transparent? Thank you.

[rsae]

Fantastic! Thank you. The search icon anchors the search box so I really want to keep it. Is there any way to make it functional — to make the search icon act as a “submit” button for the search query?

[rsae]

Nearly there. The search box is inline, but I think it’s covering up the search icon now…
Perhaps this is why the search box was designed to drop below the menu?
