### Live search triggers

![](/files/-MXptoLn_PTi01BHvD4l)

* *Trigger search on facet change* - live search trigger, when the user changes an option on the settings drop-down
* *Trigger search when typing* - triggers the live search during typing to the search input
* *Character count* - only apply the triggers, when this number of characters were entered

### Redirection to the results page

Redirection can be set for both the magnifier click and the return (enter) key events.

When using WooCommerce and searching for products use the *Redirect to: WooCommerce results page* value.

#### Custom redirect URL

When using a custom permalink structure for the search queries, you can adjust the redirection to the same destication via this option. The `{phrase}` pseudo-variable is replaced with the current search phrase.

{% hint style="warning" %}
This will not change the results page URL to a custom page URL - this option only redirects to the given location. If you want to change the results page URL slug, check out [online tutorials](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-change-the-default-search-url-slug-in-wordpress/).
{% endhint %}

### Search results page override

![](/files/-MXpwQTHzxvcyTnfCHcO)

When enabled, the plugin will try to override the search results page with the same results as on the live search list.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The plugin can not change the layout/design of the results page, that is a theme controlled feature. All it can do is send which items to display as results, the rest is up to the theme.
{% endhint %}
