Mika Store's omni-search downloads your entire catalogue index once on the shopper's first visit, then runs all filtering locally in the browser. The result is instant, zero-latency search-as-you-type with no server round-trips. It also works offline once cached, survives server maintenance windows and scales infinitely without adding load.

What you get
Search-as-you-type with imperceptible latency β results update with every keystroke
Searches product name, SKU, description, category and specifications simultaneously
Filter panel β price range, category, stock status, rating and custom attributes
POA products hidden from search results for anonymous shoppers (B2B safe)
Catalogue index rebuilt and uploaded to your CDN on every publish
Works offline once the index is cached in the browser
When to use this
Essential for any store with more than 30 products. Shoppers who can't immediately find what they want don't browse β they leave. The filter panel is particularly valuable in catalogues with meaningful attribute differences (size, material, price range) where category browsing alone is too blunt.
Best suited for
How to set it up
Search is enabled by default β no configuration required to activate it
Fill in product descriptions and specs thoroughly: the more content, the better the search relevance
Publish your store β the search index is generated and uploaded to CDN automatically at publish time
The search bar appears in your store header and is accessible from every page
Optional: configure which attributes are shown as filter facets in Dashboard β Catalogue β Search settings
In practice
A tradie types 'M10 bolt grade 8.8' into search and gets results within milliseconds, filtered to the right category. Without search, they'd have to navigate Fixings > Bolts > Metric > High-Tensile β a journey that costs conversions.
A shopper arrives without a specific product in mind. They open the filter panel, select Price: $50β$120, Colour: Blue, Size: 10. The catalogue reduces from 400 items to 12 relevant ones β discovery made effortless.
Pro tips
Write product names the way your customers search, not the way your supplier codes them. 'Stanley 20V Cordless Drill' beats 'FMC609B-B2 DRL KIT'.
Include common synonyms in the product description β 'tap washer' and 'faucet washer' mean the same thing; a buyer might search either.
Re-publish your store after bulk product updates to rebuild the search index β it won't update automatically on draft saves.
