Quick Start
Follow this guide in order to set up your own product finder in no time.
-
Create a new finder:
- Go to your Magento admin panel
- Сlick the Catalog tab in the top left of your admin panel.
- Click Product Finder in the pop-up.
- Click Add New Finder to the top right of the finder grid.
- Specify its internal name in the first input field.
- Click Save in the top right.
-
Change its general settings.
If you would like to place the finder on a page without any products, make sure to redirect the filtered results to a page with a product list in the Destination URL field.
-
Edit its appearance.
The finder block's visual options are determined by a PHTML template. The module includes plain horizontal and vertical templates. If you would like to create a template that better fits your design language or business goals, you can either edit the existing templates or create a new PHTML file and upload it to the server.
-
Configure the product filters.
The filters are prioritized from top to bottom (in the backend and in the vertical template) and from left to right (in the horizontal template).
There are two ways to synchronize the module's filters with your product information: importing the list of relevant products and custom attributes with a CSV file or connecting the filters to global product attributes. You can use both filtering options in a single finder.
-
Place the finder on the relevant page.
You can use widgets, layout update XML snippets or template .phtml in order to do that.
Useful Info
You can add several finders to a single page.- Reindex the finder with php -f bin/magento mirasvit:finder:reindex and clean Magento cache.
