Aliases
When customers make a request using your shop’s internal search engine, they may make mistakes in
spelling. If PrestaShop does not display the right results, the "Alias" feature will address them. You'll
be able to take words containing spelling errors and point them to the real products sought by
customers.
Firstly, to find spelling errors often typed by your users, go to the heading "Shop search" under the
"Stats" tab. You can see the words typed by your customers as well as the most frequent errors.
When you click on "Aliases" the page below will appear, displaying the alias previously created.
To create a new alias, click on “Add New.” The form below will appear.
We take this example the words "Palyer" and "Plaier" which will match the word "Player". Once all of
your words are configured click "Save" to confirm.
We also invite you to consult the section on meta tags, to better understand how to display products
based on words typed by your customers. See Configuring product description on page 25 and Tags
on page 47.
