Hello,

To do that, you'll have to use the Joomla search module, and publish the "HikaShop products search plugin" plugin.

We wish you a nice day!
Kind regards,
Mohamed Thelji.

Hi Mohamed
The product search plugin is already active and I have joomla search in my home page.
I cannot search products only articles.
You need to be more specific and explain the setup.
Best regards
Peter

Hi Peter,

[strike]The "search module" and the "products search plugin" must both be enabled.

Joomla search module and HikaShop search module are two different modules.[/strike]

sorry I'm wrong...

Try to disable Smart Search Content Plugin.

Hello Peter,

No problem, you'll need to :
- Create and publish a Joomla "Search" module

- Publish and configure the "HikaShop products search plugin" plugin through your plugin manager
- Make sure the "Fields" option is set to the product field values you want to be searched.

If you still can't search for products, can you show us screenshots of how you configured your "HikaShop products search plugin" plugin ?Thank you.

Kind regards,
Mohamed Thelji.

Neither the hika search module, nor the hika filter return any results for all products on the main category page.
The joomla search does, but not in the hika shop product format.
The filters on the other category pages all return appropriate results.
Here are the screenshots for the Search All Products module and filter.

Hi,

In the "Menu" setting you're supposed to enter the id of your products listing menu item which has to be configured to display all the products. Do that and it should work.
