Shopware Unified - Smart Did You Mean (SDYM)

For Smart Did You Mean (SDYM) to work porperly with the FINDOLOGIC Shopware Unified Plugin. Three conditions have to be met:

• FINDOLOGIC Shopware Unified Plugin has to be installed
• SDYM has to be activated in the customer login for the specific service
• SDYM-Recomendations have to be provided by the API

The SDYM output can be customized by themes and text modules in the Shopware backend.

The plugin provides the file FinSearchUnified/Resources/views/frontend/search/fuzzy.tpl

The SDYM output must be tested before the feature is released, due to the fact, that the default implementation does not fit the design of individual themes To adapted a template, create a file of the same name and folder structure in the theme

Available variables in the template:

• $finSmartDidYouMean ⇒ Only available if SDYM suggestions exist.
• $finSmartDidYouMean.type ⇒ has one of the following values: did-you-mean, improved, corrected, forced.
• $finSmartDidYouMean.alternative_query ⇒ Contains the alternative search term proposed by FINDOLOGIC.
• $finSmartDidYouMean.original_query ⇒ If the type is “did-you-mean” this variable is empty. In any other case, the original search word is included.

The texts of the SDYM suggestions are stored by the plugin in the Shopware backend as snippets and can be adapted there as well.

Select Namespaces → frontend → search → fuzzy on the left side of the window.

The available snippets are displayed on the right.
