Stopwords
This section allows you to manage stopwords. Stopwords are words that carry little or ambiguous meaning and are not helpful in search queries (e.g., and, or, the, a, with, etc.). Removing these words from search phrases ensures that search results are more relevant.

The following fields available:
- ID: ID of the item
- Stopwords: list of stopwords items
- Store View: store view where these stopword will be implemented
- Action: actions on the selected emails in the queue:
- Delete: delete stopword
- Edit: allow see detailed information about stopword
Select Action -> Edit to view more details about the selected item.
You can edit next fields:
- Stopword: a single stopword which should be removed from search requests
- Store View: select where defined stopword will be applied
