[Resolved] better search capability

[Jo]

I wondered if you could recommend a search plugin that would work well with GP. The default search widget on my client’s site is not great. The results page for the search is clunky and doesn’t include an add to cart for product searches. My client was looking at a few other websites and their search results pages are very nice looking. https://www.vivehealth.com/ & https://www.vitalitymedical.com/ Their search pages have the product in columns with small thumbnails of the product click for more info or the add to cart.

I have searched for WooCommerce Search plugins and I really am a bit confused on how the final search page will look. They really don’t get into that. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks!

The template itself isn’t particularly built for WooCommerce, which is the issue.

This plugin looks nice, as it loads the search results as you type them in: https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-woo-search/

It may be worth checking out the Product Search widget as well – I wonder if it would display the products in a better way for you.

Let me know 🙂

Thanks Tom, the Product Search widget works much better. I did not see that in the widgets, thanks for pointing it out. The other plugin, advanced woo search is also intriguing. I may look into that as my client is very particular on how things look including the search bar, yay for me : )

No problem! Glad I could help 🙂
