How to turn on exact phrase search

    I have the search set up how I think I should, and it works great, but I noticed that it doesn’t search for the exact phrase. If I search for “red shirt” for example, it will bring up all the items with the word “red” in the title. I have it set to only search the title, which is what I want, but how can I have it search only for the exact phrase being searched? I have over 10,000 items, and I don’t want every single red item being pulled up when they only want to search for a red shirt. Thanks!

    Hello,

    Yes, you are right about that. By default plugin use OR search logic. This means that inside search results you will see all products that contains at least one of the search words. Of course products that contains all searcing words will have higher priority and will be visible at the top of search results.

    If you want to show in search results only products that contains all search words than you need to switch to AND search logic. But this feature available only with pro plugin version.

    Regards
