SearchWp WooCommerce Integration

WooCommerce uses a post type archive template to facilitate search results. This extension allows SearchWP to work with this default behavior by WooCommerce. This extension also incorporates other features of WooCommerce search such as Layered Navigation.

If you are not using a built in/standard WooCommerce search results page (e.g. your search results URL does not have post_type=product anywhere) this extension is not necessary.

WooCommerce stores Product Variations in a different way than it does Products. There are a few things you can do to integrate Product Variation data alongside your Products depending on how you want results to appear.

If you would like to index Product Variation data alongside Products (allowing Product Variation data to cause the parent Product to appear in search results) you can follow the example outlined by this KB article: Indexing and Searching WooCommerce Product Variation SKUs

Alternatively, you can force Product Variations to appear as their own post type by using this as a starting point: view code snippet
