Search bar

Hi Mike,

To set search text box search for description as well. You can go to “Options” tab, inside “Basic” page you will options under Catalogue page functionality. There is an option for “Page Search” you can select “Name and Description”. That will enable search for Description as well and another option will “Case Sensitive Search” set it to “No”. It will compare only letter not their Cases.

Thank you

Thanks it works!!

Last question. Is it possible to change the words in the catalogue? Words like “Product Search:” or inside the box, change the “Search…” or when searching, change the “Updating results…”.

I ask this because the website is in spanish and it looks weird that only those parts are in english.

Hi Mikey,

We do have several labelling options available in the premium version of the plugin. If you go to the “Labelling” area of the “Options” tab, you’ll see these. If you aren’t using the premium version, then what you could try doing is creating a translation of the plugin, or modifying the existing Spanish one, using a program like Poedit. Alternatively, you could make the changes directly in the plugin code (keeping in mind that changes made there would be overwritten if you update the plugin).

Perfect! It worked, thanks.

Hi,

I just realized that it doesn’t work, if you go to the search bar and type proteína, it won’t work.

And if you go to the product pages, you will see that there are options saying Proteína.

It is not case sensitive and I selected the options you mentioned.

Hi Mikeyascanio,

When you search for the string does it give you any product at all or Just loading message? Does it only gives issue with that product or all other product. If possible, can you provide us a link your website catalogue page please?

Thank you

Hello,

It doesn’t provide anything at all, it even finishes loading.

This is the link:

Hi Mikey,

I had a few questions:

1) Can you send us the shortcode you’re using on this page: https://noverek.com.mx/suplementos/

2) Can you give us an example of a product that contains the word “proteína”? (Note: we might also need to know what category that product is in as well)

Hello,

1) What do you mean by shortcut?

2)The example is Aprocol M90 – Proteína cárnica.
The category is “Deporte” and the sub is “Generación de masa muscular”.

Regards,

Hi Mikey,

1. “Shortcode” is a string that you use to display a catalogue.

2. When we go to your site, the search does work if you write the correct case and if you include the correct accents on the letters in the words. If I search for “Aprocol” with a capital “A”, then I get a result. If I search for “Proteína”, then I also get a result.

I apologize for any confusion in our previous post, but the option is actually called Case Insensitive Search. As such, you would want to set it to “Yes” if you want to make the searches not case sensitive.

Hello,

The shortcode that I use is:
[product-catalogue id=’7′ starting_layout=’Detail’ category=’1′]

And I dont want it to be case sensitive, I want that if someone types “proteina”, it would search for “Proteína”. If someone searches for “aprocol”, to get “Aprocol” with a cpaital “A”.

If I set it to yes, it doesn’t work either.

Hi Mikey,

As you’ve now set “Case Sensitive Search” to Yes and saved, here’s a few more things you can try (as it appears you have some JS console errors related to your theme and a few other plugins):

1) Make sure your plugins and theme are all up to date
2) Try deactivating all plugins except for Ultimate Product Catalogue then reactivate one by one
3) If the letter case issue is still occurring after this, try briefly switching to another theme (such as WordPress’ “Twenty Seventeen” theme)

—————————————

I also noticed that your shortcode points to an non-existent category ID (i.e. there is no active category with an ID of “1”), so the right side is blank when the page loads.

If this wasn’t intentional, you can find the proper ID by editing a category and using the ID number listed at the top.

For example, instead of:

[product-catalogue id='7' starting_layout='Detail' category='1']

You could use:

[product-catalogue id='9' starting_layout='Detail' category='41']

to display the “Deporte” category on page load.

Let me try the first steps.

The other thing you mentioned about the shortcut, I’m aware that there is no active category with an Id of “1”, is just that i dont want it to start with a category and that’s the only way I found to do it.

Hi Mikey,

I’m not sure what you mean by “i dont want it to start with a category”, but that is not what that shortcode attribute does. That shortcode attribute will make it so that the catalog loads only showing products from the category with the ID of 1. And, since you have no category with an ID of 1, this will cause problems.

I understand but I want the page to load without products, I don’t want them to be shown until the client filters them, and by putting to start with something that doesn’t exists, it loads without products.
