SKU search only first characters

Hello,

Please use following code snippet

add_filter( 'aws_search_query_array', 'my_aws_search_query_array' );
function my_aws_search_query_array( $query ) {
    global $wpdb;
    $regex = "/term_source = 'sku' AND term LIKE '%(.*?)%'/is";
    $query['relevance'] = preg_replace( $regex, "term_source = 'sku' AND term LIKE '$1%'", $query['relevance'] );
    $regex = "/term_source = 'sku' AND term LIKE '{.*?}(.*?){.*?}'/is";
    $query['relevance'] = preg_replace( $regex, "term_source = 'sku' AND term LIKE '$1%'", $query['relevance'] );
    return $query;
}

You need to add it somewhere outside plugins folder. For example, inside functions.php file of your theme or use some plugin for adding code snippets.

Also after adding this code you will need to go to the plugin settings page and click ‘Clear cache’ button.

So, if user type inside search form, for example, 74303818, you want to search only for 743?

Well code snippet that I write previously will works exactly the same way – will show only 70/284821 when searching for ’70’.

You enable only search for product SKU?
Are you sure than other search sources are disabled?

Can you give me the link where I can test this search form?

As I see code snippet changes doesn’t applyed to your search form.
Looks like you have old plugin version and this snippet just doesn’t works for you.
If you use pro version – please email to wpunitnet@gmail.com for instruction how to get latest plugin version.
