How Search Works

What does search look for?

When someone types in the search box, the system looks for matches in several places. Here’s a simple summary:

Where it looks	Example	Notes
Product Code	136583	Exact match only
Product Title	Black Floral Dress	Finds close matches too
Product Description	"A beautiful floral dress"	Looks for all words
Facets (filters)	Colour: Black	Looks for close matches

If a customer makes a typo, the search will try to find the closest match (for example, “Blak Dress” will still find “Black Dress”).

When does a product show up in search?

For a product to appear in search results, it must:

Be in stock
Be available (not hidden or out of date)
Not be excluded from search

Can I change how search works?

Yes! You can adjust search settings in the Search Rules page. For example, you can:

Boost certain fields (like product title)
Turn on/off fuzzy search (for typos)
Exclude out-of-stock products
Enable instant suggestions as users type
