Searching does not search through tags

[walteratx5nu]

Hi there

When I use the standard Gecko search in the header:

Then the tags of the products are not searched. How can I set this search up to also search through the tags, short description and long description.

If this is not possible with the Gecko search, what should I use and how can I put the new search field in the place of the Gecko search_

Thanks

Walter

Thanks Harry

I installed the Advanced Woo Search. I think when I select ‘ Seamless integration’ the search field does not show up anywhere. And also the standard Gecko search does not search through tags.

I put the shortcode for the Advanced search field into the footer, just to see if it works, and it does, but I want it in the header.

Question: How can I place the Advanced Woo Search field into the place where the standard Gecko search field is?

Thanks

Walter

Hi Walter,

Please copy file layout-x.php in gecko > views > header to gecko-child > views > header

X is number of header layout using for your site.

And use short code of plugin replace current search form.

I do not seem to have a gecko-child folder. Do I need to install the gecko child theme as well as the gecko theme?

Ho can I find out which layout number I am using?

Thanks

Walter

Yes, you need install gecko-child.zip

You can find which header layout using on your site in JanStudio > Theme Option > Header.
