    Default Search Results

    I need some assistance with the search and advanced search results. For some reason it does not include the category name so I will come back with No results found. For example, If a customer puts in "washer drain pump" they get nothing. If they put in "drain pump" it will find it because it is in the name. How do I get it to include all the words individually?? Please help! People are leaving the site because they see no results found.

    I did include some instructions to my search and recently installed the search module "Instant Search, like Googles" and that is a really cool module which may help.

    You could also add more details in your custom meta tags on the keywords and enter:
    washer drain pump

    I have used this add-on http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=822 in the past with great success. It may need some changes to adapt to ZC1.5 code

    Perfect, that worked beautifully. I use Aspona to mass update and I just combined the category name and item description into one field and labeled it meta tag description. Worked like a charm!! Thank you!!

    Thank you for your response, What changes would need to be made to adapt to 1.5.0?

    I am sorry, but I really do not know, haven't used it in a 1.5 shop yet. Also I do not have the time right now to look in to it. I'm trying to finish some paid projects

    In the files that need to be merged, the added or changed code was marked with comment if I remember correct.

    Thank you for your suggestion, I tried installing it and it didn't do what I needed it to. Thank you for the suggestion, but Ajeh's solutions works the best. Thanks
