Sorry, my fault. The smart searvh plugin was disabled. I missed it, because it was in danish

Hi,

You're not using the Joomla search module with the Joomla finder (advanced search) module which is not compatible with Joomla search plugins like HikaShop's.
Instead of the search module you're using, enable the Joomla Search Module that should be preinstalled on your website and it will work if you enabled the HikaShop Products search plugin.

I would like to add a search feature to my website but I don't see the "Joomla Search Module" on my site. I searched the Extensions directory for it but I cannot find it.

Any suggestions please?

Thank you!

Thanks Jerome.

Maybe I am missing something but I enabled the Joomla Search Module and the HikaShop Products search plugin but when I do a search I see very few products in the search.

For example, I enter the name of a product that I have a lot of items of but only two items show up and when they do I see only the description and no product image.

Is there something else to configure to see the product image and to search the entire hikashop database?

Thank you!

Hi,

The plugin will search the entire HikaShop database. If you don't see all the products possible as results, it's probably due to your configuration, but we would need more information on the issue to be able to say anything more precise.

Regarding the product image, the Joomla search results page doesn't handle images by default.
There are three solutions to have images on the results page:
1. You use that extension: www.modulout.com/22-adsearch-for-hikashop.html
2. You customize the Joomla results page code( note that the link information is outdated): www.akashchakrawarti.com/images-in-search-results-joomla/
3. Instead of using the Joomla search system, you use the HikaShop filters system:
www.hikashop.com/support/support/documen...-filter-listing.html
It will only search for HikaShop products (no Joomla articles, etc), but it will display the results as a HikaShop products listing and thus it will have all the display options of HikaShop products listings.
