It can occur in these cases:
- The default sorting of the Search Results Widget differs from Relevance. You can check out that in the Searchanise control panel > Search & Navigation > Search results widget section > Content tab > Default sorting option.
- You’ve set up merchandising rules, so the promoted products are displayed at first. You can check out that in the Searchanise control panel > Merchandising & Promo > Merchandising section > Products tabs.
- Products that match the search query are out-of-stock, and you’ve hidden such products from search via the Searchanise control panel (Search & Navigation > Preferences section > Products tab > Hide out-of-stock products option), or you’ve adjusted to show them at the end (Searchanise control panel > Search & Navigation > Preferences section > Products tab > option).
- Some of the product fields are disabled and the app doesn’t search through them. You can check out that in the Searchanise control panel > Search & Navigation > Preferences section > Products Fields tab.
