WordPress standard search use

Hi copc,

Given that our product catalogue is not a custom post type, it’s unlikely that your theme’s search will be able to query our products.

Your closest option would be to use the “Product Search” widget that comes with our plugin in a widgetized area in your theme.

The “Product search” widget does not seem to work?

Use the search word “rooster”

No results

Though one result that should show up is
https://www.hagenrenakerfieldguide.com/birds/?categories=3&sub-categories=15&SingleProduct=389

Ideas?

Also, it seems on that widget to have a word on the button, it also displays above searchbox? seems odd…

Hi copc,

We tried “Rooster” as the search query and it shows up the results. In that case, please make sure you have set “Case Insensitive Search (AJAX Only)” to “Yes” under the “Basic” area of the “Options” tab to disable case sensitive search.

And regarding the appearance of the widget itself, you could make the changes to the labels by going to the “Widgets” options in your wordpress admin panel. In case you do not want any label above the search box you could use the following CSS to hide it by adding it to the “Custom CSS” field found under the “Catalogues” tab and navigating to the required catalog.

.upcp-widget-search-label {
display: none;
}

Thanks so much that seems to work better. I had to also add the CSS to the template as in the Catalogues would not effect home page.

Thanks again!
