It is the first time I get so many solutions from a single forum. Really really thank you. Just report a very minor finding, no practically issue. When I search an English string, I get results for both languages. i.e. I get the search result and can switch its language as usual. If I search a string in the 2nd language, I will see nothing when switch to English.

My problem is on the Search function, it only works for English string but always find nothing for the second language I add. Any advise? Thanks")* Thank you for searching excellence. Here is the description of the situation. No matter the visitor is under page of which language, when an English string (e.g. part of a product name) is entered into the search field, the search result is always displayed. And for the "search result page" itself, visitor can press the language switch button to change the language. However, ... If the string being entered into the search field is in the 2nd language, the "search reault page" will display result only when the language switch button is switched to the 2nd language. In other words, Search result is found, but being displayed or not is decided by something else. If the visitor always stick with a single language, this is not an issue; though not ideal. BTW, I seeked help from both of you and falang on day one. And I received an email from falang yesterday that they are also working on a plugin and will release it soon. so ![;)](/media/kunena/emoticons/11.png ";)") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQtaG93LXRvLzQ2MjI1LXNvbHZlZC13aGVyZS1zaG91bGQtaS1nby1mb3ItaGVyZS1vci1mYWxhbmc/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")** - [![nicolas's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar63.png?1793428657)](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") - [ Away](/forum/user/63-nicolas) Less More - Posts: 86316 - Thank you received: 14276 - - 14 years 6 months ago [\#46344](#46344) by [nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") Replied by *[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")* on topic *[Re: Where should I go for?

My problem is on the Search function, it only works for English string but always find nothing for the second language I add. Any advise? Thanks")* Regarding your case, that's actually normal. The english text is in HikaShop and considered as "main" so the plugin always searches in it. On top of that, the plugin searches in the translations of the current language. If you remove the line: $filters2[] = 'b.language_id='.$lg; from the plugin file, it will remove the limitation on translations and thus it will always search in all the translations. On the other end, if you want to only have results in the current language, you could change the line: if($limit){ to: if($limit && !$count){ in the plugin file. Our search plugin was already supporting translations from JoomFish, so it was logical to support it for Falang too.

Just use the latest version of HikaShop (1.5.![8)](/media/kunena/emoticons/2.png "8)") and it will be included already. There is not much to setup. Once it's installed, publish it and voilà, it will be integrated with the joomla search module automatically.
