Guest Posted November 14, 2004 Posted November 14, 2004 Hello, I am interested in knowing what my customers are searching on with the standard advanced search or just the normal search query that comes with osCommerce. Is there someway to find out what a person searches on other than looking through the logs of the webserver? Is there perhaps a contribution that enhances the search function? I have searched but not found anything usable. Regards Richard B)

Guest Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 well, you could create a table and insert the search string whenever someone presses search. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That sounds all logical enough. Care to enlighten me (and others). I am not expert with MySQL. But I like to play around with it. Just not with my production server :sweating: But where would one find the results there. Look directly into the database? Regards Richard

Guest Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 Thank you jacob. I will look into this one as it sounds really good and something that I could use. Regards Richard B) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Finally gotten around to installing. It took me a bit of time as I got 4 languages to update but otherwise it is very well done. One must remember to not change the keywords to other languages if you are working with various languages since the keyword will be found in one language can't be found in the other. So there is not point in making in any references there. Regards Richard B)

tracstev Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 I frankly never heard of this one, must say, looks promising Thought i'd give this a bump, i think everyone needs to run this mod on their store, the default search function isn't very good as i have customers typing in words and phrases that should list products but they don't show and as a result i'm probably losing sales. Also I used to track this with google adwords now i can get a fuller picture within the admin screen! Perfect..
