Shopify Search & Discovery

Relies too heavily on assumed auto-recommendations -- would love to be able to remove SPECIFIC auto recommendations, leave the rest, and have the available slots auto-generate. Secondly -- need to be able to ban specific products from ever auto-generating. There are things in my store (blank envelopes etc) that are great for functional use but I never want recommended. 3 out of 5 stars because of two major functionality omissions -- add these and will gladly upgrade to 5 stars.

The one feature I wish it had was the ability to set rules for recommendations. I get auto-generated ones that don't make sense, like a ring and a baby onesie. If I could select which tag or collection to recommend from, the auto-generate would be more accurate for upsells.

All of my recommended products on every product in my store was reset to some random default with no warning, giving me hours if not weeks of work to do. Editing to now mention that changes to the recommended products are not sticking. The app is showing random products in the recommended section and there is no way to edit it. This is really, really frustrating. I've been wondering why sales have been down the last few days, now I know why. The "hide default" products is not working.

Under “Search & Discovery” app’s Recommendations tab, I have put 3 specific items in the Related Products column for each of my products (a total of 8 products), yet on the live website, the You May also like section only displays, 1 or 2 items, not all 3 items I’ve specified, and it is inconsistent in it's display tendencies. The settings within Shopify (Maximum products to show) for the “Related Products” is set to 3. Why am I seeing less than 3 items displayed on the live site?

This app sort of does what I want, but not exactly as I want, therefore, 3 stars. Please work to improve this.

The app provides some great features to improve search and product discovery. It would get 5 stars if the Recommendation feature worked in reverse for custom product pairings.

Unfortunately the filter of sizes does not work at all. Even though we have selected for out of stock merchandise not to show up, it still does. Additionally, it fails to filter sizes properly. Not recommended

Alles funktioniert so, aber ihr müsst es bei den neuen Themes anpassen, denn er zeigt beim Filtern Inhalte an, die nicht dazu gehören.

Very bad users experience and the fact that I cannot customize URLs is stupid. Have you looked at your URLs after createing filter? They look like this "filter.v.t.shopify.theme=gid%3A%2F%2Fshopify%2FTaxonomyValue%". Who wants to have these URLs in their website?

This app is good if your filter results will be relatively small. In my opinion the app has two major shortcomings, and both are only relevant if number of filter results for your store can be high.

1) Shopify limits the number of filter results to 100, which may be fine for most stores but is a major problem for mine. I have product metafields that are used to filter and these fields can have several hundred different entries but shopify will only display 100. Shopify suggests workarounds but it seems hokey to have Product Names A to F, Product Names, G to M, and so on. Just make the number 100 by default, but have the option to change it in the settings if needed.

2)Not having an option for a scroll bar in the filter results. Again, if you have a lot of options that will show up on your filter Shopify will display a certain number followed by a "show more" link. If the number of results is high, such as 90, your customers are in for a lot of scrolling.

I have tried many other platforms and most of them fall short in regard to product filtering with the exception of Ecwid. Their built in filters are really good, unfortunately the platform falls short with regard to product videos and cost.

I have conceded and am currently trying several 3rd party filters.

The app is very limited. Number of products is max 5000. If you have more than 5000 products, the filters are not shown on your page. Because of this, a lot of products are not shown.
