<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nEnabling this helps customers to choose the order by which the search form is shown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enable price in search form<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThis helps customers to find the products in their desired price range and make finding a suitable product easier for them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Filter](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woocommerce-product-table\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/02\/08-filter-products-by-min-max-price.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nBy enabling this option, the customer can also choose a price step to show the product prices based on this step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enable status in search form<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nBy enabling this, the customers can search by product status:<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Filter](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woocommerce-product-table\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/02\/08-filter-products-by-status.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n- All:<\/strong> It show all products without filtering.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

Enable SKU in search form<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nSKU is a stock keep unit, used to track products. It must be unique, and should be named so it does not clash with post IDs. SKU is an identification, usually alphanumeric, of a particular product that allows it to be tracked for inventory purposes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Filter](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woocommerce-product-table\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/02\/08-filter-products-by-SKU.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nTypically, SKU is associated with any purchasable item in a store or catalogue. The SKU identification for a product may or may not be made visible to a customer. If visible to customers, you can enable this option to allow customers to search by SKU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enable custom taxonomy \/ category<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nOne of the powerful options of the WooCommerce product table plugin is that it is compatible with all other third party plugins. This means that if you have installed a third party plugin that adds new custom taxonomies to your website, you will be able to use them as search options in the \u2018Search Box<\/strong>\u2019 tab.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFor example, if you have installed a third party plugin that adds the brand taxonomy to your website, you can enable this option to allow customers to search based on the product brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Filter](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woocommerce-product-table\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/02\/08-filter-products-by-brand.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n- Enable product categories<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Searching by category is a very important option for creating a search form for a product table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, the customers don\u2019t have the time and the patience to go through all types of clothing while they are only looking for shoes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Filter](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woocommerce-product-table\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/02\/08-filter-products-by-category.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nLetting them search among products by category saves their time, which means they will have more time to go through other products on your website, which in return raises the probability that they buy more products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- Enable Product tags<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Product tags are the smaller, finer, classification options compared to categories. If you sell picture frames, you might have five different sizes. You would use product tags to distinguish these different sizes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Filter](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woocommerce-product-table\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/02\/08-filter-products-by-tag.jpg\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nWith this being said, you can see how important it is to allow customers to search by tags. You can also enable search by color in \u2018Enable Color\u2019 which also helps better distinguish different products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Search form in product table front-end<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
