Advanced Woo Search PRO

Advanced Woo Search PRO extends WooCommerce search to cover more product data and result types. Shoppers can search as they type with live AJAX results or use the store’s search results page. Standard search sources include product titles, content, short descriptions, categories, tags, IDs and SKUs.

Search additional product data

• Attributes: Search attribute values such as color and size, including custom attributes, and show attribute archive results.
• Taxonomies: Search product taxonomy terms such as brands and show their archive pages.
• Custom fields: Search product field values, including fields created with Advanced Custom Fields (ACF).
• Identifiers: Find products by GTIN, UPC, EAN or ISBN.
• Variations: Search for and display product variations.
• Users: Search store users and show their data in results.

Results can be ordered by relevance. The search engine considers where terms match, how often they appear, and whether the match is full or partial. You can also pick AND logic, which requires all search words to match, or OR logic, which can return products matching any of them. An exact-search option matches full words instead of partial word forms.

Configure results and search forms

Choose a results layout and decide which product details to display, such as images, prices, descriptions, SKUs, categories, tags, attributes, stock status and badges. Set a maximum result count, add an Add To Cart button, and apply filters to include or exclude products, archive pages or users according to available parameters. PRO also supports search form layouts, tabs with separate result options, and multiple independent search instances.

Search behavior can account for plural and singular word forms, synonyms, stop words and misspellings. Search suggestions can depend on the current query, and matching terms can be highlighted in results. Built-in shortcodes can display a search form, taxonomy results, suggestions or similar search terms. For example, use [aws_search_form] to place a search form in a page or post.

Integrations and placement

Add a search form with a widget, shortcode, supported page builder or the option to replace existing search forms. The search results page uses the store’s current theme layout. Integrations include WCFM, Dokan and MultiVendorX for marketplace setups, along with support for ACF, Google Analytics and multilingual plugins such as WPML, Polylang, WooCommerce Multilingual, qTranslate and GTranslate. Supported builders include Gutenberg, Elementor, Beaver Builder, WPBakery, Breakdance Builder, Bricks Builder, Oxygen Builder, Divi Builder, Avada Builder and Flatsome UX Builder. Mobile layouts are supported.

Set up product search

Install and activate the plugin, then open its settings and execute the initial index table process. After indexing, product data changes are synchronized automatically, so you do not need to re-index everything manually after each update. Set the search sources and result display settings, then add the form with a widget, shortcode, page builder or search-form replacement option.
