Hi,

Thank you for waiting, while I performed some testing and research on my test website.

Unfortunately, there is no built-in feature available in Toolset plugins which can be used to create a live text search with a redirection.

For this, you'll need custom code and an auto-complete script-library, for example:
hidden link
hidden link

To get the list of available taxonomy terms, you can use the "get_terms" function from WordPress:
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_terms/

For more personalized assistance around code customization, you can also consider hiring a professional from our list of recommended contractors:

I hope this helps

regards,
Waqar

Sorry, but what about [wpv-filter-search-box] can i use it and apply to your component an external jquery autocomplete?

[Waqar]

The [wpv-filter-search-box] shortcode will just create a search input field, without any source selection or form, so I'm afraid it isn't going to be very useful for your case.

To get you started in the right direction, here are some guides on creating search with autocomplete feature:
