    Hello,

    I’m not able to pinpoint how to change some minor spacing on the mobile ajax search bar. the if you look at the attachment theres excessive spacing underneath the header, under the search bar.

    the issue is very minor on the desktop, but I’d also like to close those gaps as well.

    I may be completely overlooking how to adjust these parameters.

    Absolutely love this plugin.

    thanks for the help

    Hi!

    Thank you very much for your kind words, I really appreciate it 🙂

    You can actually change that margin right here: https://i.imgur.com/PvKTUGa.png
    By default it should be 12px, you probably want something a bit lower. On desktop it is much less visible due to the screen size, but it’s there.

    Great, thank you!

    come to find out I had created custom CSS for that, after all.

    Another thing:

    The Frontend Search Settings dropdown filter setting is currently set to multiselect, and searchable and is an INCREDIBLE tool, but all of the overflow that fills the search box from multiple selections goes behind the next line.

    Is there any way to either
    A) make the box expand and push everything below it down when that particular filter searchbar input box expands?
    B) put checkboxes on the dropdown list without automatically adding them to the searchbar input line?

    I just noticed if I select multiple items from the dropdown, close the settings dropdown box, and then reopen the settings box then everything is sorted neatly without overlap. How can I set up the settings frontend to do this automatically, without refreshing?

    I hope this makes sense.

    thanks again!

    Or, is it possible to use an accordion header with a checklist hidden underneath it?

    an example would be (from my screen shot) Transaction options, town, categories, vendors, are headers that act as buttons. when clicked their respective checklist appears.

    my screenshot is a picture of my Shop filter that has this exact functionality.

    Well, I’m afraid these are only possible with major modifications to the core code.

    The issue with the flow and multiselect is likely only something with either the configuration or a CSS conflict. Can you please make sure to have rows set to flex here: https://i.imgur.com/rvDWg3h.png
    That should very likely fix the flow for the new items.

    Ah, that fixed it up no problem!

    I had an revelation while waking up this morning, and thought I’d like to try something new, which is exactly how amazon’s search bar functions:

    while typing, I’d like for your autocomplete feature to show options below the search bar text input field. I’d like for these to be clickable to trigger a search.

    This is just an idea for a test. I’m looking at my site from several angles before I launch, brainstorming how I can simplify things, and I think this idea would make sense.

    I appreciate your patience.

    I’m afraid that is not possible at the moment. This was however requested a few times, so I have added it to the issue tracker. Sooner or later we will figure out something for this. The main issue is that the results suggestions itself need to run a request to the back-end, and doing another one could lead to potential major performance issues on low-end servers, but I think I can resolve that too.
