    I have been using the “Search Autocomplete” plugin to add an autocomplete facility to the search text field i.e. after typing three characters it brings a dropdown with all results containing those characters.

    It doesn’t seem to work with the Search & Filter plugin, is it possible to make work or add an auto complete facility to the plugin?

    Thanks

    Hi there, unfortunately I haven’t used that plugin or tested, I’m assuming you mean this one?

    http://wordpress.org/plugins/search-autocomplete/

    In that case, it says:

    Generic field selection. Any valid CSS selector can be used to pick the search field

    So, the selector for use with this plugin would be:

    .searchandfilter input[type=text]

    So apply the plugin to this selector – this will target the search box directly.

    Aha got it, thank you it is working perfectly. Combining the two plugins = perfect detailed search facility

    Thank you
