KeymasterHi!
The Frontend Settings > Categories only affects the visibility of the category selectors on the fornt-end settings drop down.
To exclude the results from specific categories completely, go to the Advanced Options panel, there is a similar drag-drop item to exclude categories 🙂

KeymasterHi!
I’ve checked a few pages, but I’m seeing it correctly:

KeymasterDefinitely let me know if you get it solved or if you find something interesting.
To be honest I prefer disabling W3TC instead of playing with the configuration. I believe there is a link on the plugin settings page like “turn off all caching” or something, but that didn’t work for me a couple of times, so I just disable it completely, that definitely works 🙂

KeymasterHi!
From what I can see the front page is showing the default search, not the Ajax Search Pro, so it’s definitely not a styling issue. This might be a programaticall error. Make sure that the same header file is used on the front page as on the other pages. It seems to me as if the front page was displaying the default search box and others the search shortcode (either in an if-else statement, or a different file is used for header on the front page).
If that’s all right, than this must be a simple page cache issue. One of the layers, either W3TC, Cloudlare or MaxCDN might be serving an older cached version of the front page, which doesn’t use the search shortcode yet. Make sure to clear the page cache, browser cache, Cloudflare and MaxCDN as well.
Also, test the front page if W3TC is disabled. If ajax search pro is visible when W3TC is inactive, then it’s only a page cache showing, and it’s not cleared. If still the old box is showing, well then there is somewhere a programatical error, displaying the old box instead of ajax search pro shortcode.

KeymasterHi!
I’m not sure, but it might be possible.
1. On the General Options -> Behavior panel, set:
Minimal character count to trigger search option to 0
Trigger search when changing a facet on settings? option ONlike so: http://i.imgur.com/CbWRsTu.png
2. Make sure the settings are visible by default: http://i.imgur.com/hPN75O5.png
3. and then, to hide the search bar, use this custom CSS:
[html].asp_main_container { height: 0px !important; }[/html]
That seems to be working on my test environment.

KeymasterHi!
It seems like your database account (or wordpress) does not have sufficient privileges to create database tables. The reason why you don’t see the search instance, it’s because the neccessary tables are missing, which should have been created when you activated the plugin.
You have few options here:
1. Create the tables manually. I suggest exporting the database tables from your local MAMP installation and importing them on your server via PHPMyAdmin (or your prefered tool). The plugin uses the following tables: wp_ajaxsearchpro, wp_ajaxsearchpro_priorities, wp_ajaxsearchpro_statistics, wp_asp_index
2. Checking and fixing the database user permissions in your CPANEL. I highly recommend doing this, as many plugins need permissions to create database tables. Then reinstalling the plugin should solve the problem.

KeymasterYou are welcome, I’m glad it’s solved 🙂
Yes, actually. It’s probably coming with the next update. It depends on how the initial tests work out 🙂

KeymasterHi!
Make sure to clear your browser cache. This version has new loading icons, because the old ones were deprecated and removed. I can see the loading icon, so it’s probably a cache problem.
Ernest Marcinko
KeymasterHi!
I’ve found and corrected the problems. Some options were missing now, because of the reverted instances.
I’ve configured the caching and tested the index table, now it should work again.

KeymasterHi!
I just checked and it’s working for me on both Chrome and Firefox:

KeymasterHi Nader,
I have no knowledge of any issues regarding the autocomplete. Can you be more specific about the problem?
Can you provide an url where I can take a look at it?
Ernest Marcinko
KeymasterHi!
Use the theme options panel to configure the styling: https://wpdreams.gitbooks.io/ajax-search-pro-documentation/content/theme_options.html

KeymasterHi!
In this case I would recommend to redirect to the WooCommerce results page, which should display the results from the WooCommerce engine, but perhaps with the correct layout and the Add To Cart button as well.
To do that, change the Show more results.. url option on the Layout Options -> Results Layout panel to: ?s={phrase}&post_type=product
Like so: http://i.imgur.com/Ls9Plxs.png

KeymasterHi!
Based on the screenshot, I suspect browser or page cahe – since that looks like the default search style. Try updating by following the Safe Update guide.
After that, clear any cache you have activated and refresh the page with CTRL + R to make sure the browser cache is refreshed.

KeymasterHi!
Thank you for the information!
I haven’t found any issues, only a possible misconfiguration. I have checked the post you provided: https://www.secrettelaviv.com/best/designers/sografik/
It’s tagged as “Graphics Design” (http://i.imgur.com/2NVw3Bj.png), but that tag is excluded on the Advanced search options: http://i.imgur.com/rVK0Bsc.png
If I search for “otra” then it returns the “La otra” correctly – because it’s tagged as “VIP cards” and “Latino”, and neither of those are excluded.
