Allow your users to break down their search results using available filters (a.k.a “Facets”). These are created by the FacetWP plugin, and with the power of LSX Search – we bring these filters to the search results. The LSX Search Extension allows you to choose which type of content will be filtered in your global search results, and choose the display of the results. Powerful search is important for a good website user experience. LSX Search allows you to customise the layout of search results (grid / list), enable or disable specific filters (including post types or pages) and sorting relevance (date / A – Z / price). LSX Search integrates with the FacetWP plugin which creates the filters for your search results. Users can filter search results by available filters.
