Query completion

[karleq]

Hi,

 

I'm struggling to get this working on my site correctly.

 

Have followed the guidelines and I can get it partially working by using JQuery 1.10.2

 

https://pmlive.funnelback.co.uk/search/admin/help/query_completion_collection_cfg.html

 

But even then it will not work correctly on my site (I need to click or press enter twice to get the event to fire)

 

Does anyone know if there is an updated version of this to work with JQuery 2.x.x (or 3.x.x)?

 

Does anyone actually use this or do you Funnelback experts just use the standard JQuery autocomplete with the Funnelback  json suggestions list?

 

Thanks for your help and advice as always.

 

Karl

Hi Karl -

 

It looks like the URL you've provided above requires a login - did you mean to link to https://docs.funnelback.com/query_completion_collection_cfg.html#addingquerycompletiontoyoursitesearchbox ?

 

The suggest.json endpoint is able to be called by any one of a number of Javascript libraries - examples using Typeahead (remote content source) are also frequently seen in the wild.

 

jQuery and jQuery UI dependencies are not mandatory, but they are referred to in some examples on the documentation website.  The versions currently being used on docs.funnelback.com are:

• jQuery - v2.1.4


• jQueryUI - v1.10.3 (Custom Build)

There are some additional troubleshooting tips available from https://docs.funnelback.com/query_completion_collection_cfg.html#customisingstylingquerycompletionsif required.

Hi Gordon,

 

Thanks for the advice and link to the docs pages (I have access to an older design but I think the content is the same).

 

I'm still running into issue's so think I'll try a different system for now.

 

Thanks again
