Manage Stopwords

Stopwords are words that have little lexical meaning or ambiguous meaning and are not useful during the search (ex. and, or, the, a, with, etc). Therefore, these words will be removed from search phrases.

Manage Stopwords

To manage stopwords go to System / Search Management / Manage Stopwords.
You can add new stopwords manually or can import them from YAML file.

Import Stopwords

To import stopwords press the button Import Dictionary. You'll see a dropdown list with the available dictionaries. Select a dictionary, store view, and press the button "Import".

Tip

All dictionaries are located in the folder [magento_root]/var/sphinx/stopwords/.

You can create a custom dictionary for your own language using the same file format or use our dictionaries.

Example of dictionary: EN.yaml
