Search options
Create search term redirects
Use search term redirects in Optimizely Configured Commerce to create a redirect associated with a specific search term. This can be useful when there is a particular page with products or content relevant to a common search term.
Work with autocomplete
When searching for products on a website, entering a minimum of three characters into the search field triggers the autocomplete functionality in Optimizely Configured Commerce. As more characters are entered, Commerce Search refines the results to more accurately match the query.
Work with stopwords
Stopwords are the common words in language that are ignored when included within a search query. Configured Commerce has a default set of stopwords already included, but it may be useful to add additional subjective terms from being included in search query processing.
Work with synonyms
Synonyms allow your customers flexibility and variation when searching for products on your website. As an example, you offer several types of bubblers on your website, but they are not all called bubblers.
Boost and bury search results
This article provides general descriptions and instructions for how to boost and/or bury search results. For more detailed descriptions and explanations on the impact of boosting and burying, review the Understanding Elasticsearch Ranking https //docs.
Work with ngram indexing for partial matches
When your customers search, they want to see results when there is a partial match of a product or manufacturer number. Commerce Search provides Ngram Indexing to do so.
