Can I see what users search for in my store?

I’m searching for “hot” but no results are displayed. What’s wrong?

This is a common problem caused by MySQL configuration, and it’s connected with a minimum length of a search query. Please check "ft_min_word_len" setting; it controls the minimum number of characters in the MySQL query. If you lower the limit...

Will this extension work for product backend search in the catalog?

No, this module is suited to improve Magento search on the frontend only.
