Search by SKU issue

So, if you search for 2575 you should get two options:

and this

But we just get: https://brainresearchlab.com/product/adhesion-superfrost-plus-microscope-slides/

Hi,

Please tell me – are you using a search form in the header of your site? If so – then as I see it is not a AWS plugin search form but just your theme default one. Please read this article to learn how to add plugin search form on your shop pages.

Regards

Hello, I installed the advanced Woo search plugin and activated seamless integration but I noticed that searching using SKU never works when I use my laptop. On the other hand, when I use mobile search it only works some of the time, not always. What can I do to make the search by SKU work every time on my laptop and my mobile? Thank you

@kevwe123 Perhaps you don’t add plugin search form to your shop pages. Can you give me a link to such a page with the working search form?

@mihail-barinov thanks. please do you mean a link to the page that has search button on my website? If yes, this is it: https://theflowershopbylc.com/

@mihail-barinov do you mean link to the backend of my website please? Thanks

Thanks for your link. As I see, the search form in the top right corner is not the plugin search form but some default ones. Please read this article to learn how to add plugin search form to your site pages.

@mihail-barinov thanks for your response. I have followed the instructions detailed via the link but it hasn’t solved the search problem. Is it possible for you to help me any further? can i send a screen recording of what i did maybe you can point any errors i possibly made? Thanks

Please tell me – what exactly you?was trying to display the plugin search form? Did you try to use plugin search form shortcode or widget?

@mihail-barinov I tried to follow this instruction detailed in the link you sent me. I have pasted the instructions in bold here: 3. Widget: Plugin comes packed with a built-in widget. So you just need to go to Appearance -> Widgets, drag AWS Widget to desired widget area and set title and form id for it.

I tried to follow the instructions above by going to my WordPress dashboard> Appearance> widget and dragging the AWS widget to my default sidebar (but when I checked on the front end the search function doesn’t always work)

If you are talking about that search form in the top right corner of the header then I think that it is not presented in the widget areas.

But it looks like I found another solution for you. Please use the following code snippet:

add_filter( 'aws_js_seamless_selectors', 'my_aws_js_seamless_selectors' );
function my_aws_js_seamless_selectors( $selectors ) {
    $selectors[] = '.si-header-widgets .si-search-form';
    return $selectors;
}

You need to add it somewhere outside the plugins folder. For example, inside functions.php file of your theme or use some plugin for adding code snippets.

@mihail-barinov thank you so much. I am a bit scared to add codes because i am not a ‘techie person’and this is not my site but this looks straightforward. To confirm what you said, i can copy and paste this code anywhere outside the plugins folder? anywhere at all? Thanks

You can add this code via following code snippets plugin – https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/code-snippets/

Or place it inside your them functions.php file.
