Efficiency reports
With detailed search reports, you can assess how relevant the search results are to your customers. Based on this information, you will be able to fine-tune your search configuration to ensure that your customers are directed to the products they need.
Our extension collects statistical data and stores it in the mst_search_report_log table. Starting from version 2.2.33, this data will be kept for 365 days by default, after which outdated data will be deleted via cron. If necessary, you can manually truncate it. This will only affect the statistics data in the reports.
