    I recently set up brands so users can filter and select the different brands and categories through filtering and shop page. Can users search through “brands” and categories?
    Because I just saw an olds post about this basic functionality that Xtsore may not support. “We regret to inform you that the use of xstore brands and plugins such as WooCommerce product filters is not possible on our platform. However, we do offer a variety of filters, including both standard and AJAX-based sorting/filtering options, which may meet your needs. “{https://www.8theme.com/topic/setting-up-products-using-brands-and-categories/}

    Hello @S,

    Could you please clarify the search query you would like to have in your store? You attached a post from the year 2024, so that functionality might already be implemented in the upcoming theme updates.

    Currently, we offer the “Filter by Product Categories” and “Filter by Brands” widgets, which you can use in your sidebar on shop or other product archive templates. Please check these on your website and provide us with examples if you believe the widgets are not functioning correctly or require improvements in functionality. Screenshots and videos are helpful in such cases.

    Best regards,
