Manage search settings

It’s possible to define which type of search should be used in your store's blog according to the general capabilities of your store and server.

Here are the options you can choose from:

• Built-in search engine is preselected by default. It’s a resourceful but powerful solution; offers synonyms to the customer’s search request;
• Fulltext Search uses MYSQL algorithms; corrects typos automatically;
• MySQL LIKE Search is the fastest type of search that works with the exact matches. If visitors are mostly searching your store for particular models, this type of search would be the most suitable.
