What it does
The default WooCommerce search waits for a full submit and often misses products when shoppers use different words or make a typo. This plugin shows results as people type, and you decide which product fields count: name, description, SKU, attributes and categories. You can give each field a priority so the most relevant matches appear first. Synonym sets and tolerance for slight misspellings help shoppers find products even when their wording differs from your catalog.
The search form can go anywhere on your site through a Gutenberg block or a shortcode, so it fits headers, sidebars or landing pages. You can adjust colors, fonts and layout for both the search bar and the results so they match your theme. Preset keywords let you place chosen products, such as best sellers, in front of shoppers when they search. WooCommerce is required, and the plugin is built for stores of any catalog size that want more control over how search behaves.
Best for
- WooCommerce stores with large or varied product catalogs
- Shops whose customers search by SKU or attributes
- Store owners wanting branded, configurable product search
Features
Product matches appear instantly while shoppers type in the search bar, including product images and prices, without waiting for a separate results page to load.
Add the search form anywhere on your site using the built-in Gutenberg block or a shortcode, so it can sit wherever your store layout needs it.
Decide whether searches look at product name, description, SKU, attributes and categories, and set priority levels so the most relevant fields weigh more in results.
Configure groups of synonyms so shoppers who use different words or variations for the same thing still find the right products in your catalog.
A tolerance threshold lets the search handle slight misspellings, so products still show up when a shopper's search term is not typed perfectly.
Adjust the colors, fonts and layout of both the search bar and the results dropdown so the search matches your brand and theme.
Create preset keywords that feature chosen products, such as best sellers or high-margin items, directly in the search results shoppers see.

Questions about YITH Ajax Search Premium
Does this work without WooCommerce?
No. The plugin is designed specifically for WooCommerce stores and requires WooCommerce to be active. It searches your WooCommerce products and shows their images and prices in the live results.

Yes. You choose which product fields are included in searches, including name, description, SKU, attributes and categories. You can also set priority levels for these fields so the most relevant matches rank higher in the results.
What happens if a customer misspells a product name?
The plugin supports a tolerance threshold for slight misspellings, so close matches still appear. You can also set up synonym sets, which help when shoppers use a different word than the one in your product titles.

You can place the search form anywhere using the included Gutenberg block or a shortcode. Its colors, fonts and layout can be customized so it fits your theme wherever you add it.
