Turn every Product Search into a sales opportunity

Customers who use your store search already know what they want. If the search bar shows nothing useful, they leave. TH Smart Product Search replaces the basic WooCommerce search with a fast, intelligent live search that shows the right products from the very first keystroke.

Results appear instantly in a clean dropdown with product images, prices, SKU, stock status, and an add-to-cart button.

Shoppers can search by voice, make spelling mistakes, or use their own words for a product, and still find exactly what they are looking for.

You control which products rank first, and you get clear reports on what customers search for so you can stock what they want.

Why standard WooCommerce Search isn’t enough

The standard WooCommerce search was built for simple keyword matching. It reloads the page for every search, gives no live suggestions, does not forgive typos, does not understand that “pants” and “trousers” mean the same thing, and gives you no idea what customers searched for.

Every failed search is a lost sale. TH Smart Product Search fixes all of this in one lightweight plugin that runs entirely on your own site.

Live AJAX Search with instant autocomplete

Live Search Box

Make product discovery effortless with real-time search suggestions. Customers can spot matching products and keywords instantly without interrupting their shopping experience.

  • Choose when live search starts, with results appearing after just one character.
  • Control the number of products displayed in the dropdown.
  • Organize results under clear headings for products and categories.
  • Add a “See All Results” link to open the complete search results page.
  • Customize the “No Results” and “See All Results” text to match your store.
  • Display a loading animation or upload your own custom loader icon.
  • Enable a focus overlay to dim the background and keep shoppers focused on search results.

Voice Search for faster mobile shopping

Make product searches easier with voice search. A microphone button appears inside the search bar, allowing customers to speak their queries instead of typing. It offers a faster, more convenient, and accessible shopping experience, especially on mobile devices.

Smarter Search with typo correction and synonyms

Shoppers don’t always spell product names correctly or use the exact words listed in your store. Fuzzy search helps them find the right products even with typos, while adjustable sensitivity lets you control how closely search terms must match.

With custom synonyms, you can connect related terms so different words lead to the same relevant products, making product discovery easier for every shopper.

  • Adjustable fuzzy matching: Set the sensitivity percentage to control how forgiving search results are.
  • Unlimited synonym groups: Group related terms, such as trousers and pants, denim, and jeans, or sunscreen and SPF.
  • Flexible word matching: Improve search results for brand names, regional spellings, and common misspellings.

Search by SKU, category, tag, attribute, and brand

Many shoppers search by part number, model code or brand rather than product name. TH Smart Product Search looks across all the product data that matters.

  • Product title
  • SKU, ideal for spare parts, electronics, and B2B stores
  • Categories and tags
  • Product attributes such as size, color, or material
  • Brand
  • Optionally include blog posts and pages in results
  • Exact match mode for precise phrase searches in large catalogs

Product category filter in the Search bar

An “All” category dropdown sits inside the search bar, letting shoppers narrow results to one department before they search. Stores with many categories get cleaner, more relevant results.

Control how Search results are ranked

Give priority to the products that matter most. Customize the weight of different search matches to control result rankings, then boost selected products to increase their visibility and help drive more sales.

  • Title Match Weight: Prioritize products with titles that closely match the search query.
  • SKU Match Weight: Adjust the importance of SKU matches in search results.
  • Category, Tag, Attribute, and Brand Weights: Control how strongly these product details influence ranking.
  • Popularity Boost: Give products with more sales a ranking advantage.
  • Ratings Boost: Prioritize products with higher average customer ratings.
  • Stock Status Boost: Rank in-stock products above out-of-stock items.

Your best sellers and top rated, available products rise to the top, which means more clicks and more completed orders.

Trending and suggested searches

Help shoppers discover popular searches before they start typing. Display trending search terms as clickable chips when the search box opens. Choose how many terms to show and customize the heading to match your store.

Rich results with three Search styles

Show exactly the information your customers need in every result, and match the search bar to your store design without writing code.

  • Toggle product image, price, short description, SKU, and add to cart button
  • Choose from Default, Traditional, and Modern search styles
  • See every change instantly in the Live Search Preview inside the dashboard
  • Customize border radius, button radius, background color and placeholder color
  • Set search bar width or use full fluid width
  • Edit the placeholder text and button label, or hide the submit button
  • Control description length in the dropdown

Indexed Search built for large stores

TH Smart Product Search uses a dedicated product search index to deliver fast results, even for WooCommerce stores with thousands of products.

Rebuild the index with one click and adjust the batch size to balance indexing speed and server performance. Your data stays on your server.

Product and search data are never sent to external search services, giving you full control over your store’s search data.

Track Search queries and discover customer interests

Search Queries tab with the Search Query Tracking toggle, query filters, date range and a results table with Query, Hits, CTR, ID, First, Last and Products columns.

Your search bar is the best market research tool in your store. Search query tracking records every frontend search so you can see exactly what customers look for.

  • Every search query with hits, click-through rate, and number of matching products
  • First and last time each query was searched
  • Filter queries by starts with, exact, or contains
  • Filter by date range
  • Show searches with results or without results

Searches that return no results reveal products you should stock, synonyms you should add, and product titles you should improve.

Google Analytics integration

Send search events to Google Analytics with a single line of code, and analyze search behavior alongside the rest of your store traffic and conversions.

Easy setup anywhere on your store

Install, activate, build the search index, and your new search is ready. Place the search bar anywhere using the method that suits you.

  • Shortcode: [th_smart_product_search]
  • Search bar with icon: [th_smart_product_search layout="bar_style"]
  • PHP template tag for developers: <?php echo do_shortcode('[th_smart_product_search]'); ?>
