I would like to request the following search enhancements.
1). Fuzzy Search Logic
1). Accommodate spelling errors,
2). Alternate spellings,
3). Pluralizations etc. in search terms (or suggests likely alternatives).
Sensitivity should be adjustable.
2). To eliminate the ‘no results found’ plague, similar matches should be presented to a user when available.
for e.g.
You searched for : “gol bal”
Sorry, we could not find any matches for “gol bal”. Did you mean golf ball or gold ball?
3). Restrictions
*Searches should be restricted to categories manually or automatically based on what category a user is currently browsing
4). Shoppers should be able to search for products by name, SKU, brand name, description or any other defined product attribute

Hello Ibn Saeed,
To answer your question, I can assure you that we are ready to add as many useful functionalities as possible to our shopping cart. And of course a similar search logic is in this list. However, it is quite difficult to give you an exact time schedule, at least now.
And thanks a lot for your request. We always welcome our clients' ideas.
With kind regards,
ViArt Support Team

If we wanted to pay for this mod to get this into the next version, what would this cost? Perhaps a few of us can pool money together and pitch in on this?
