Introduction

Navigate to: Marketing > Site Search > Search Profiles > Edit Search Profile - Facets tab

Search Profiles allow administrators to easily manage the creation of search configurations using

1. Searchable fields
2. N-Gram Settings
3. Character Filters
4. Relevance rankings
5. Search query properties and operators
6. Facets

This can be used to configure the rules using which the search functionality will find and display results on the webstore. From the Facets tab, administrators can manage the facets that will be displayed on the web store.

 

Steps to associate the facets:

1. Navigate to Marketing > Site Search > Search Profiles > Edit Search Profile - Facets
2. Click on Associate Facets
3. Select Facets and click on the Save button
4. Publish the search profile.
   
   1. To publish the Search Profile click on the Publish button under "Action" in order to see the facets that are associated with the Search profile.
      

Changes on the Admin screen (from version Znode v9.7.1 and onwards)

Changes from Znode v9.7.1

1. On the admin screen following tabs will not be available under Marketing > Site Search > Search Profile - Add/Edit Search Profile - Query Properties
   1. Query Type
      1. Match Phrase Prefix
      2. Match
      3. Match Phrase

Changes from Znode v9.7.3

1. On the admin screen the following new configuration settings are introduced under Marketing > Site Search > Search Profile - Add/Edit Search Profile

   1. N-Gram Settings are added

   2. Character Filter Setting is added

2. Only one search profile can be created for one catalog, therefore the search profile will work for all the stores where the search profile’s catalog is associated.

   Note: The provision to mark the default search profile is removed because of this reason.

3. It is mandatory to publish the changes to test the search from the admin application and to view the changes on the web store.

4. When no search profile is created for a catalog the system-defined search profile will work for that catalog on the web store.

5. Search Profiles defined in the admin application will only work for store-based catalogs.

6. After taking an upgrade all the existing search profiles will be deleted therefore admin users will have to manually create and configure the required search profiles.

Limitation: There is no way to configure search profiles for Account and User Profile based catalogs from the admin application therefore only system-defined search profile work for Account and User Profile based catalogs.
