Is the team even working on all these bugs, or have they stopped working?
Pagination is a common practice to address your initial question and is not a new feature. As advised, if you believe there are product missing from search related to the thread above, please feel free to add to it for investigation.
how to add to it for investigation
Make a post in the technical issues forum. Mention the product numbers of the products you believe to be missing from search.
I see mainly doormats when I search for area rugs.
Our website limits the number of results displayed per page, a practice commonly known as “pagination.”
We do this primarily to ensure a smooth and efficient experience for all users. Displaying an extremely large number of products or search results on a single page can significantly slow down loading times, especially for users with slower internet connections. This also makes it much harder to navigate and find specific items, as you’d have to scroll endlessly. By breaking the content into manageable pages, we improve the overall speed, usability, and navigation of the website, leading to a better shopping experience for everyone. In our experience, customers are well versed with their intent using our search function.
Hey @James totally understand the pagination importance and breaking it up, as I have a completely separate Shopify store, so I get it. I think the problem here they were talking about is that it completely stops at page 7, there are no additional pages and no ‘next’ arrow either once you get to page 7. With 200,000+ product results, I’d imagine there should be many more pages. Versus if you search ‘wedding invitation’ you can go well beyond page 7.
exactly … this limits buyers in their choices… only 7 pages ..it’s strange …
I have done a simple search for “area rug” and have the ability to move past page 7. https://www.zazzle.com/s/area+rug?pg=10&q=area%20rug
