Power Search Auto Complete

Re: Power Search Auto Complete

That is odd. I have shownoresults:false, in there and it still shows it.

Looks like I need to update that js library.

Re: Power Search Auto Complete

Yep. It is a bug in version 2.0, fixed in version I sent.

Re: Power Search Auto Complete

Well, I uploaded the new js and css files. When I changed the code in the head section to point to the new js file it stopped working. I changed the js file back to 2.0 and it works again but the no results shows.

Re: Power Search Auto Complete

initially mine broke too. I modified the properties (right above the </body> tag) to this:

var options = { script: "pathToScript.php?", varname: "variableName", json: true, maxresults: 35};var as = new bsn.AutoSuggest('idOfTextfield', options);I then modified the various fields. But I think the main difference is the what I highlighted in red.

Re: Power Search Auto Complete

Thanks for digging out the newer version of the library.

Here is the line that broke
var as_json = new AutoSuggest('searchadvanced', options);
Added the bsn. and all is fine now.
var as_json = new bsn.AutoSuggest('searchadvanced', options);

Re: Power Search Auto Complete

<script type="text/javascript">
var options = {
script:"http://url.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Stor...l&Screen=test1&",
varname:"autoletter",
json: true,
delay:100,
timeout:4000,
cache:false,
shownoresults: false,
};
var as_json = new bsn.AutoSuggest('searchadvanced', options);
</script>

Re: Power Search Auto Complete

I am out of town until Oct 31. If you want to wait until after that, I'm sure we could figure it out. Make sure you have downloaded the latest bsn files as they changed how it was done and what the code had in it.

Re: Power Search Auto Complete

I might have a few more things for you to look at when you are back in FL

Re: Power Search Auto Complete

HEY I GOT IT.

all working

Re: Power Search Auto Complete

ok all is working but the results are based on searched terms.

is there a way for it to pull from power search file that is built from your store products?

Also i am getting ajax error from mac.

[wcw]

Re: Power Search Auto Complete

The reason I used searched terms is that was available for all. To use it from the store products meant you would have had to use the template data feed to built the words lists use the parse tokens. Not everybody has the template data feed. But everybody can do the autocomplete without buying the data feed module by using the successful search terms.

Re: Power Search Auto Complete

if both the successful searches and the datafeed were used..
can the results be ranked as more relevant .. say if the term was more successfully searched for more often...

for example: a person searches for 'box'
and you have four kinds of boxes in your store.
I'd want the 'box' that we sold the most of.. to be more relevant and to show up higher in the search results.

I think relevance as amazon does it is by page views. we don't have this data stored in the merchant database, but we do have qty sold. and that's pretty relevant.

can this be setup so the default search results are 'relevant'?

Re: Power Search Auto Complete

Page views is the most relevant. Go to http://www.pinemporium.com/mm5/merch...&Store_Code=PE Search on 1AA. Sort on Most Viewed. I kept it brief since the topic of this thread is autocomplete feature.
