This add-on is a great alternative to Searchings’ however it missing some important features such as “Stop Wordsâ€, where users can add stop words to products they don’t want to appear in search results under certain keywords.
For instance I have 100 products named “bigman†and other products named “manâ€, so every time customers search for “manâ€; the “bigman†products also show up in search results. So my customers getting irrelevant search results.
Dear Cart-Power, please consider to add this function in the next release – I will be more then happy to pay again for upgrade.

We will consider to include this feature in add-on. If you need add this function in the nearest time, we can offer you to perform it as custom development.
Does the add-on also makes it possible to search on the custom-made features items (same as used in te filter). Currently it is not possible to display items based on the names or numbers from the features allocated to the product

[color=#282828][font=arial, verdana, tahoma, sans-serif]It is possible to configure search by short description, full description, keywords, product code. Do you mean ability to choose these options for customers? [/font][/color]
in the admin I can go to products → features and add a new feature. For example I have a winestore and one of the features is “year”. 2010, 2011, 2012 etc.
I can use the feature as a filter. But the search option in cs-cart does not search bij features.So if I search on 2010 which is allocated to a product it will not find the product. Am I right? The only option I have is to put the featues of every product in the keywords bar of the product.
Does your add-onn makes it possible to configurated it to also include the features of the product in the search results

I agree, it will save us tons of time if we can search by product “Options” as well, rather than include those keywords from options. If the search results can also include “images” of product options then this will help as well in terms of accessibility.
