Posted Jan 06th, 2010 at 11:17 PM and seen 959 times

We are glad to announce our new FREE Magento Extension which helps in “live search” for Products with an option to display product thumbnails along with description. Your current Magento installation can only show product names while searching. Where as our Magik Autocomplete extension can display product name, product description and small thumbnail as well. It is well known fact that only product name is not enough for searching a desired product so why not show them product thumbnail and small product description which gives better visibility for your products.

With this extension live search becomes more easier as user can get a quick overview of your products without waiting the search result pages to be displayed (without refreshing). Best thing about Magik Autocomplete extension is that it become more user friendly than the default magento install live search.

Magik Autocomplete extension comes with admin panel options to configure how you want your search results to be displayed. You can easily hide product thumbnail or product description using the admin configuration settings. You can customize the appearance of search box with the help of CSS to match with your current Magento theme.

  • While installing this extension please go to Admin -> Magento Connect -> Settings Tab. Now select Preferred State as "Beta" and save settings. Now Go back to Extensions Tab and try installing Autocomplete again. It Should work. Once done, you can change your preferred State as "Stable" again.
