Hi, For those who have experience with Wordpress: The tag system & search term system works great. Its an automatic tool that gathers tag of most clicked links on the site, most searched terms on the site and automatically links products to those. In Magento you have tags, but the default way it only works if you manually assign them on products. The same counts for search terms. E.g. if a product is named "blues" and someone searches for "blue", if this is not set that "blue" equals "blues", it will not find this product. My question: Are there any cool extensions for Magento Community 1.7 about a more automatic ans SMARTER tags & search terms feature? Thanks
It almost sounds like you are not building the products correctly out of the gate. There are a range of useful or advanced search plugins that are pretty nice but you may want to start here http://www.blueacorn.com/magento-blog/improve-magento-sales-with-better-search-results/ You can also not use it at all. Sphinx is pretty cool. DP uses it last I checked. http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/advanced-sphinx-search-pro.html Tad swamped tonight but I will send a few more links over asap to some magento connect stuff. hope that helps, Nigel
Thanks heaps! Do you have skype (and time for a few questions?) The sphinx extension, and others, are they compatible with "search auto complete" extension? Or does it also do this?
