Fuzzy search not working

    Hi Mikko, I’ve implemented Relevanassi (Version: 3.3.5) on my site https://supersnelgezond.nl using a widget in the sidebar with the following code:

    <form method="get" id="searchform2" action="https://supersnelgezond.nl/"> <input type="text" name="s" id="s" value="Search here.." onfocus="if (this.value == &quot;Search here..&quot;) { this.value = &quot;&quot;; }" onblur="if (this.value == &quot;&quot;) { this.value = &quot;Search here..&quot;; }"> <input type="image" src="https://supersnelgezond.nl/wp-content/themes/foodpress/images/search-button.png" value="" id="search-button"></form>

    This works, but only the fuzzy search does not work. If I search for “spinazie” but misspell this by typing “spinazia” or “spinnazie”, I get no results.

    I have selected fuzzy search “When straight hits get no results”.

    Thank you in advance for your help, Carlo

    Fuzzy search doesn’t work like that, it doesn’t recognize misspellings. Fuzzy search means you can find “spinazie” when you type “spinaz”.

    The “Did you mean” feature is more what you want: it doesn’t give automatic results based on mistyped search terms, but it does suggest the correct search term. It’s particularly useful in the Premium version.

    Hi Mikko, got it. Thanks for your swift reply! I’ll look into the Premium version.
