Relevanssi issues with WooCommerce site

    Hi, I am trying to get Relevanssi to work correctly with a Woocommerce site for a client but there are some issues. Namely:
    1. It doesn’t seem to be searching the Product Data items even though it says it will. The Attributes tab in the Product Data is where all the terms are that need to come up in searches. How can I get this to work?
    2. I tried the synonym function but it also isn’t working. I added:
    eye = eyes
    eyes = eye
    but nothing comes up when you search for “eyes”, only “eye”, since that’s what I put in a few test descriptions.
    The site is https://www.mwamodels.com/
    The only search items that are working are for 3 models that I tested by duplicating the text in the description and hiding its visibility from the page, but we don’t want to have to do that for all models.
    Can you help? Thank you!

    Looks like the synonyms are working: https://www.mwamodels.com/?post_type=product&s=eyes returns results.

    I’m not sure where WooCommerce stores the product data, so I can’t be sure about this, but I’d suppose you could try setting the “custom fields to index” setting to “all” and rebuilding the index. Does that help?

    Hi Mikko, thank you for your help. I tried setting the custom fields to “all” and rebuilding the index but it didn’t work – the results that are consistently coming up are for the 3 models where I put hidden data on the page to test it. Do you have any other suggestions? If you look at the code for one of the models, you can see how the custom data is laid out and maybe that would help? For example, on https://www.mwamodels.com/models-talent/melissa-fiore/ the items are height, hair color, etc.

    I can’t really tell if the synonyms are working right or not but one thing I notice is that they definitely do NOT work when you type in “eyes” but don’t click enter – the automatic dropdown of suggestions always says “No search results could be found, please try another query” when you search for “brown eyes” for example. When you enter, it brings you to a page with results, but the dropdown doesn’t have them unless you type in “brown eye”. Is this something you can help with? Thanks so much!

    The automatic dropdown is likely not powered by Relevanssi, so Relevanssi settings don’t apply to it.

    From the rendered page, I can’t tell where the data is stored. Without knowing where the data is stored, I can’t help you with getting it indexed.
