Thanks xgarb for your solution.

Replacing the search.php with your new one seems to do the trick and I am running x-cart 4.0.19

Has anyone tried this in comparison with the websitecm.com mod? I'm getting good search results using the free mod on some searches, but I have a problem with searches when the search term is part of another word; e.g., tee is part of steel, and there are THOUSANDS of steel items in this particular store. Searches like 1/4 are also problematic; I get 11/42 etc as search results. This is a 4.0.19 cart.

unzip and copy attached to /include/search.php

References for this are....
just the instructions at the bottom of http://forum.x-cart.com/showpost.php?p=98217&postcount=152
the code from.. http://forum.x-cart.com/showpost.php?p=98220&postcount=153
with the 4.0.18 alteration.. http://forum.x-cart.com/showpost.php?p=128493&postcount=200

Works for me.. not perfect but loads better than standard.

Thanks guys!
xgarb

works great!
here is my addition for 4.0.19.

Add below code to the form tag in customer\search.tpl and it will search through the extra field by default.
Code:
{if $active_modules.Extra_Fields && $extra_fields ne ''} {foreach from=$extra_fields item=v} <INPUT type="hidden" name="posted_data[extra_fields][{$v.fieldid}]" value="Y"> {/foreach} {/if}

Default Re: Improved Search Function

Same here, I discovered this thread by chance, its been going on for four years!!

I need (4.1.6) a good search that enables clients to pick up on all or any of their search words, plus searching by specific fields, such as price. I would buy a mod that did this.

Thanks

Some of my skus have a "-" in them. The search does not recognize them. Does anyone know how to fix that? An example sku# is... SJ-J20K

I have the above mod fromxgarb.

Thanks,
Matt
