Plugin for Shopware 6

Search Overlay with Category Search for Shopware 6

Search opens as a large overlay and shows products, categories, manufacturers and blog posts in separate tabs.

Shopware 6 plugin Search Overlay by Web Labels: feature view

Shopware’s standard search shows suggestions in a small list below the search field. Categories, manufacturers or guides do not appear there, and with many hits it gets cramped.

This plugin opens the search as a large overlay with its own tabs. Customers see products, matching categories, manufacturers and blog posts at a glance. Anyone who knows a product number or EAN goes straight to the product.

What you can use the plugin for

  • Large product ranges

    Alongside products, customers see matching categories and jump straight to the right listing.

  • B2B with product numbers

    Anyone who enters an EAN or product number lands on the right product immediately.
