Lýsing
With this extension when someone searches for products and their search terms match a product category then they will be redirected to that product category instead of the search results.
This is useful if you have products which do not contain the product category name in the title or description as those products wouldn’t appear in search results when someone searches for the product category name.
Features
- Redirects search terms to product categories when matched
- Search term to category match can be in any order
- Lightweight and no configuration required
Usage
There are no settings to configure with this extension, once it is activated just try a product search for a product category and you will get redirected to that product category instead of seeing the search results.
For example, if you have a premium hoodies category then search for premium hoodies (or hoodies premium) and it will redirect you to the premium hoodies category instead of showing you the search results.
Note that the redirect will only work if you are using the standard WooCommerce product search which has URLs like this: ?s=search-term&post_type=product
.

BETA Functionality
We may occasionally include BETA functionality, this is highlighted with a (BETA)
label. Functionality with this label should be used with caution and is only recommended to be tested on a staging/development environment. The functionality is included so users can test the functionality/provide feedback before it becomes stable, at which point the (BETA)
label will be removed. Note that there may be occasions where BETA functionality is determined unsuitable for use and removed entirely.
Caching
If you are using any form of caching then it is recommended that the cache lifespan/expiry should be set to 10 hours or less. This is recommended by most major caching solutions to avoid potential issues with WordPress nonces.
Screen Sizes
- Frontend: Where elements may be displayed on the frontend they will fit within the screen width
- Backend: Where interfaces may be displayed it is recommended to use a desktop computer with a resolution of 1920×1080 or higher, for lower resolutions any interfaces will attempt to fit within the screen width but some elements may be close together and/or larger than the screen width
Translation
We generally recommend Loco Translate to translate and/or adapt text strings within this product.
Works With
Where we have explicitly stated this product works with another product, this should only be assumed accurate if you are using the version of the other product which was the latest at the time the latest version of this product was released. This is because, while usually unlikely, the other product may have changed functionality which effects this product.
