Shopify Search & Discovery

March 17, 2023

Seems useful but I cant use it. I wish it would allow recommendations by PRODUCT TYPE. I think it would be EXTREMELY useful in MANY different industries.

- Good but does not meet my needs. For example: My product is named "d-18", when searching, customers have to type the keyword "d-18" or "d 18" to display the product. If the customer types "d18" the product will not be displayed. I want when customer type "d18" to display products named "d-18", "d 18", "d_18", "d/18", d.18", "d+18".. special characters will not affect search results. Thank! - Update 1: "Thank you for your feedback, you can use our Synonyms feature to solve this problem" My store has over 3000 products and is growing rapidly, using Synonyms is very difficult for me - Update 2: The limit of 25 filters allowed to be displayed is not enough. Our store needs to display about 50 filters

I'm impressed with the auto-recommendations that this provides. Our store has a lot of product types and will have almost 20,000 items, and while I can't say that we've made our tags super specific, the app is still able to recommend similar products. Yes, it probably doesn't work on all themes yet (I'm using Minimog). But this app deserves much credit. I hope in the future Shopify will make it so that it can support filter on any amount of products, not just 1,000. (To overcome this, I currently use Minimog's built-in custom tag filter)

A very nice app, they have solved a lot of their previous problems. Also you can now edit fields via bulk edit apps. Would appreciate for design options for the filters view

** [Updated Review] I have tested the sorting on our site and it is now sorted based on the order of the metafield values list. I appreciate your team quickly finding and correcting this bug! ** Replying to Shopify Response: (Thank you for your feedback! Metafield definitions have a “Limit to preset choices” feature, where you can predefine which values the metafield can accept and sort them manually using drag and drop. If you use that metafield as a filter, Shopify will apply your “preset choices” ordering to the filter values on your storefront. Head over to your shop settings, and look under “Custom data”, that's where you manage all metafield definitions. Find your “Size” metafield definition, check the box “Limit to preset choices” under “Rules”, and set all your Size values there in the order that you want them to appear on your storefront, including the ones that use a “-” or “/”.) -- I already tried this before making this review. It does not work as your described. I even checked again, after reading your response. This only sorts it when choosing a metafield value for a product, it does not manually sort it in the Shopify Search & Discovery app. Maybe I am missing something? ** -- So far, this app works great, especially for free. But, please add the ability to sort metafield values within the filter section manually. We have a "size" metafield and want it to sort from smallest to largest ascending. It is automatically sorting it by value, but if there is a "-" or "/" for fractions it does not sort correctly. Not sure if it would sort correctly if we used decimal values instead of fractions, but we want to display them as fractions. Manual sorting would be great.

"I highly recommend this searching app to anyone looking for a quick and efficient way to find what they need. The app is user-friendly, with a clean and easy-to-use interface that makes searching a breeze. The app's search algorithm is top-notch, producing relevant results in a matter of seconds. Additionally, the app offers various filters and sorting options to help narrow down search results. Overall, this searching app is a must-have for anyone looking to streamline their search process."

This app will not show the filter options on any search that returns more than 1000 items and will not be displayed on any collection page that has more than 10,000 items. For us this means that most of our big categories can't be searched up by their simple term and get filtering, and our "all products" page will never get filter options because we have categories with several thousand items and we have almost 20,000 item entries in general. The prospect of this app is great because it finally allows customers to filter by stock status and it may work fine for boutique shops that sell a dozen items or so but the inconsistency for bigger inventory shops sucks and Shopify putting seemingly arbitrary limits on when it will function is obnoxious! The filter needs to be extended to work for all results and for all products. If the page can display it or the search can show the result, the filter menu needs to function too. UPDATE: Upon further investigation it turns out the limit on the number of products per collection is 5000, not 10,000, so yeah, it's even worse, losing 1 more star Shopify. I contacted them and basically was given the standard "that's how it is, we'll tell someone about your problem and then promptly do nothing about it" response. I got a reply essentially saying it was a hard limit of the app and they weren't going to do anything about it. if you have large inventories, DO NOT use this app, it's garbage.

extremely bad app. The gui or design for the filters is horrid. Not only is the options limited, it looks bad too

Installed for the product recommendations feature. However you have to set this up manually for each product, there's no way to select more than one product at a time... it is ridiculously time consuming for a large catalog. Fix that and you'd have a good app here.

It's a really good app. Allowing for synonyms is a huge plus and we even get insights into what customers are searching for in our store. Not really sure what they would need to improve on honestly. Overall, 10 out of 10 :)

Not very happy at this point. Once installed it broke my search in such a way that it only searches for the Title of the product instead of before it would search through tags and the description to pull up products. Now for results to populate search, I have to go through and add them via product boosts one by one. :(

Not even worth one star at all. This app needs way more functions - its totally useless like this. For example you activate filter by "tags". You can not even edit the filter headline and there are ALL tags displayed in the filter you use on all products. That simply makes no sense at all.

Filters are not working. Search is also not working. No support from team. After adding this app, my website search functionality NOT working.

Dec. 3, 2022

L'app non sembra male è interessante, l'unica cosa è che non vedo i prodotti complementari sul tema Dawn, c'è un modo per inserirli o per questo tema non è disponibile. Cosi 3 stelle, se si possono mettere ne metto 5.

Great to see that you can now filter your collection products and even use metafields without having to purchase a separate app. BuyExcelTemplates.com

This app is the recommended one for my theme, but the filtering really stinks. You can't select two tags to filter and have it show only the products that have both tags. If it weren't for the fact that filtering like that is pretty standard, I would probably figure out a way to live with it. But now I have to go through all the other filtering and menu apps to try and resolve this and hope it works with my theme.

Great way to boost products with larger inventory on Search and to upsell & grow average order value on each sale.

Nov. 22, 2022

Is it possible to have the featured products also in the basket page ? Thanks a lot for your answer.

Nov. 21, 2022

You would think that a "Shopify Search & Discovery" app would actually let you add a search text box to use for filtering! :(

Great start, but really needs rule based/bulk/import for the complementary products rather than manually adding them to one product at a time.
