future plugin suggestion - product code search

hi it's me again.

I am installing a shop for a company that has about 700 products, so I am noticing many things.

this company has many products whose names are very similar to each other and their customers apparently often identify the correct one by product code so now I notice it would be nice if there was a product code search plugin in addition to the products and category search plugins. if I search for even an exact, specific product code it just says '0 results'.

it would be nice even to pick up partials, for example their codes are like this:
RCG-5530, ECU-7634 and it would be preferable for RCG to pick up the first example or 7634 to return the last.

just a suggestion/future request. thanks

If you go in the options of the hikashop product search plugin, you can select on which column the search will be done. That was added in 1.4.6

you guys really are awesome, thanks!

I will note that I was not able to use the lightbox picker to do it (I kept getting recycled to main hika admin page in lightbox when I clicked apply) but I simply added product_code manually and it did the trick.

The search plugin is installed by default when you install HikaShop. Just configure it via the joomla plugins manager.
