[Resolved] predictive text in the search field

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
I have created a search engine (with free Relevanssi plugin) and everything works fine except the predictive text... how can I make the text, within the search field, predictive?
Solution:
We do not have a built-in feature available in Toolset plugins which would allow you to create a live/autocomplete text search. You'll need code customization and an auto-complete script-library, for example:

- https://jqueryui.com/autocomplete/
- https://select2.org/getting-started/basic-usage

At this point, I'm afraid that such custom solution would be beyond the scope of our support forum.

However, we strongly recommend you to check our contractors page: https://toolset.com/contractors/, since they can offer you an implementation of this feature.
Relevant Documentation:
- https://jqueryui.com/autocomplete/

Hi there,

Thanks for your contact, and welcome to our support forum!

We do not have a built-in feature available in Toolset plugins which would allow you to create a live/autocomplete text search. You'll need code customization and an auto-complete script-library, for example:

- hidden link
- hidden link

At this point, I'm afraid that such custom solution would be beyond the scope of our support forum.

However, we strongly recommend you to check our contractors page: https://toolset.com/contractors/, since they can offer you an implementation of this feature.

Please let me know if you have any other question related. Thank you.

Regards,
Mateus.
