Description
Easy Digital Downloads – Ajax Search free WordPress plugin
Ajax Search for Easy Digital Downloads creates a simple search form that shows instant search results by suggesting products from your store that match the search criteria. The search works just like Google suggestions but this tool will function directly on your own site, using your own database.
Just start typing into the search input and a list of useful, targeted product suggestions will be shown to your customers; the more they write, the more accurate search results will be. At that point customers can simply choose what they want from the list.
