FalcoSearch was formerly known as Xero Finder.<\/strong> Your settings, shortcodes, and developer hooks continue to work unchanged after the rename.<\/p>\n\n

FalcoSearch is a falcon-fast live search and product-filter plugin built around WooCommerce. Shoppers type once and see matching products \u2014 with images, price, stock, and rating \u2014 before they finish the word. Refine results in place with instant filters for category, price, rating, on-sale, bestseller, and stock status. No page reloads. No plugin bloat. No jQuery.<\/p>\n\n

Why WooCommerce stores choose FalcoSearch<\/h4>\n\n
    \n
  • Instant product results as you type<\/strong> \u2014 title, SKU, price, rating, stock, on-sale, bestseller, newest.<\/li>\n
  • In-place product filters<\/strong> \u2014 category, price range, rating, stock, sale; combine freely.<\/li>\n
  • Lower bounce on product searches<\/strong> \u2014 debounced AJAX, server-side caching, conditional asset loading.<\/li>\n
  • No theme rewrite required<\/strong> \u2014 drop in the [xerosf_icon]<\/code> or [xerosf_input]<\/code> shortcode anywhere, or use the floating modal.<\/li>\n
  • Works alongside your existing theme search<\/strong> \u2014 FalcoSearch enhances the native WordPress search input on focus.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n

    Universal filter builder (v1.1.0)<\/h4>\n\n

    A React + Ant Design admin where you build filter sets for any post type (products, posts, custom CPTs). Each set is a CPT with a sanitized JSON config \u2014 author through the SPA, drop on the frontend via shortcode, block, widget, or auto-injection on matched archives.<\/p>\n\n

      \n
    • 12 filter types<\/strong> (registry keys shown in backticks) \u2014 checkbox<\/code>, radio<\/code>, dropdown<\/code>, buttons<\/code>, swatch<\/code> (color + image term meta), range_slider<\/code>, minmax_inputs<\/code>, rating<\/code>, status_toggle<\/code> (availability toggles \u2014 in_stock \/ on_sale \/ featured \/ downloadable \/ backorder), author<\/code>, date_range<\/code>, hierarchy<\/code> (nested taxonomy tree).<\/li>\n
    • 3-pane editor<\/strong> \u2014 sortable filter cards (@dnd-kit<\/code>, keyboard-operable), per-card config form, debounced live preview.<\/li>\n
    • Per-set behaviour<\/strong> \u2014 instant or apply-button submission, vertical \/ horizontal \/ off-canvas layout, chips, sorting whitelist, per-term counts, hide-empty terms.<\/li>\n
    • Auto-injection<\/strong> \u2014 sets with matching location rules print on the right hook (woocommerce_before_shop_loop<\/code> on Woo, loop_start<\/code> elsewhere) or expose do_action('xerosf_render_filters', $set_id)<\/code> for manual theme placement.<\/li>\n
    • Block themes supported<\/strong> \u2014 WooCommerce Product Collection block queries are mutated via query_loop_block_query_vars<\/code>, so filters work on Twenty Twenty-Five and other block themes out of the box.<\/li>\n
    • AJAX engine<\/strong> \u2014 change \u2192 pushState<\/code> \u2192 fetch with X-Xerosf-Partial: 1<\/code> \u2192 server returns JSON of the rendered container; client swaps innerHTML, updates chips, announces result count via aria-live. Mobile drawer + floating \"Filters\" button below 768 px.<\/li>\n
    • Self-excluding counts<\/strong> \u2014 Amazon-style: every term shows its count minus this filter<\/em>, so siblings stay clickable. Two-tier cache (object cache + transient, 10 min), bumped via a single option flip on save_post \/ edited_term \/ Woo product props update.<\/li>\n
    • Clean URLs + SEO<\/strong> \u2014 \/shop\/color-blue\/brand-acer\/<\/code> style paths; non-canonical orderings 301 to the alphabetical canonical. Per-set title \/ H1 \/ meta description templates with {archive}<\/code> \/ {filters}<\/code> \/ {term:filter_id}<\/code> \/ {count}<\/code> tokens. Depth-1 pages indexable, depth \u2265 2 emits noindex,follow<\/code>. Yoast and Rank Math integration when active; wp_head fallback otherwise. Core XML sitemap provider for depth-1 URLs.<\/li>\n
    • Builders<\/strong> \u2014 Elementor widgets (Filters, Chips, Sorting) when Elementor is active; Bricks stub hook for theme adapters.<\/li>\n
    • WPML \/ Polylang<\/strong> \u2014 set title + filter labels registered for translation; term ids mapped via wpml_object_id<\/code> \/ pll_get_term<\/code> at query time.<\/li>\n
    • Multi-currency<\/strong> \u2014 price slider bounds + applied values flow through xerosf_price_to_base<\/code> and xerosf_price_to_display<\/code> filters; built-in adapters for WOOCS and CURCY.<\/li>\n
    • Custom queries<\/strong> \u2014 any theme-side new WP_Query(['xerosf_filterable' => $set_id])<\/code> is auto-filtered.<\/li>\n
    • Full-page-cache compatible<\/strong> \u2014 opt-in xerosf_state<\/code> cookie when filters are active for Cloudflare \/ Varnish \/ Nginx FastCGI \/ Rocket \/ W3TC \/ Batcache vary.<\/li>\n
    • WP-CLI<\/strong> \u2014 wp xerosf seed --products=10000<\/code> to seed a benchmarkable Woo store.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n

              1. Upload the wpxero-search-filter<\/code> folder to \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code>, or install from the WordPress plugin directory.<\/li>\n
              2. Activate the plugin from Plugins \u2192 Installed Plugins<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
              3. Configure the search at FalcoSearch<\/strong> in the admin sidebar.<\/li>\n

                \n
                Does FalcoSearch work with WooCommerce?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
                Yes. FalcoSearch is built around WooCommerce. It searches product title and SKU, exposes filters for category, price range, rating, stock status, on-sale, bestseller, and newest, and renders product results with the featured image, price, and rating in the live modal.<\/p><\/dd>\n
                I was using \"Xero Finder\". Is this the same plugin?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
                Yes. FalcoSearch is the new name for Xero Finder (also previously branded as WPXERO Search Filter). The plugin slug, text domain, settings, shortcodes, and developer hooks are all unchanged \u2014 updating to v1.1.0 will not break your site.<\/p><\/dd>\n
                Will my existing settings and shortcodes keep working after the rename?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
                Yes. The option key (wpxero_search_settings<\/code>), shortcodes ([xerosf_icon]<\/code>, [xerosf_input]<\/code>), and filter hooks (xerosf_weights<\/code>, xerosf_results<\/code>, xerosf_analytics_retention_days<\/code>) are unchanged in v1.1.0 and beyond.<\/p><\/dd>\n
                Is FalcoSearch multilingual?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
                Yes. The plugin is fully translatable (text domain: wpxero-search-filter<\/code>) and ships a .pot<\/code> file. It is compatible with WPML and Polylang.<\/p><\/dd>\n
                Does the plugin require jQuery?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
                No. The frontend is built in vanilla JavaScript and does not enqueue jQuery.<\/p><\/dd>\n
                Does FalcoSearch include a dark mode?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
                Yes. Type \/dark<\/code> in the search modal to switch to dark mode, or \/light<\/code> to switch back. The theme is also configurable from the admin settings page.<\/p><\/dd>\n
                How do I add the search bar to my theme?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
                Use one of the bundled shortcodes \u2014 [xerosf_icon]<\/code> for a magnifying-glass icon that opens the modal, or [xerosf_input]<\/code> for an inline input. Both also work in blocks, widgets, and PHP via do_shortcode()<\/code>. Alternatively, leave the floating modal triggers (Ctrl+\/, triple-click, or input focus) enabled and FalcoSearch will hook into your existing theme search input on focus.<\/p><\/dd>\n
                How do I view search analytics?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
                Open FalcoSearch \u2192 Analytics<\/strong> in the admin sidebar. You can see total searches, zero-result queries, top keywords, search volume over time, and export the raw data as CSV.<\/p><\/dd>\n
                Can I customise how results are ranked?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
                Yes. Hook the xerosf_weights<\/code> filter to change the relevance weights per search mode, and xerosf_results<\/code> to post-process the result set after the engine has built it.<\/p><\/dd>\n
                Does FalcoSearch send my visitors' data to an external service?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
                No. FalcoSearch does not make external HTTP calls and does not track visitors. The analytics dashboard is stored locally in your own WordPress database.<\/p><\/dd>\n
                How do I uninstall and delete all data?<\/h3><\/dt>\n
                Deactivating leaves your settings in place so a re-install picks them up where you left off. To wipe everything, enable Remove all data on uninstall<\/strong> in the settings page first, then delete the plugin from the Plugins screen \u2014 this removes the options and analytics tables on uninstall. (Setting introduced in v1.1.0; default off.)<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n

                • New: 8 REST endpoints (\/filter-sets<\/code> CRUD + duplicate \/ preview \/ health, \/sources\/*<\/code> discovery).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
                  Search analytics<\/em><\/p>\n\n
                    \n
                  • New: Analytics page under FalcoSearch \u2192 Analytics<\/strong> \u2014 totals, zero-result queries, top keywords, and a CSV export.<\/li>\n
                  • New: the analytics writer is live. One row per search is stored in a dedicated {prefix}wpxero_search_analytics<\/code> table, gated behind the existing Enable analytics<\/strong> toggle, so turning it off stops new rows immediately.<\/li>\n
                  • New: enable_analytics_retention_days<\/code> setting (default 90, range 1\u20133650). Read precedence is the xerosf_analytics_retention_days<\/code> filter, then this setting, then the 90-day fallback.<\/li>\n
                  • New: three REST endpoints \u2014 \/analytics\/overview<\/code>, \/analytics\/keywords<\/code>, \/analytics\/export.csv<\/code>.<\/li>\n
                  • New: wpxero_search_analytics_record<\/code> action fires for every search \u2014 including when the user-facing toggle is off \u2014 so third-party analytics can observe without the plugin writing rows.<\/li>\n
                  • Changed: settings schema target moved to v3. The v2\u2192v3 migration installs the analytics table via dbDelta<\/code> and seeds the new retention key. No action required on update.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
                    Admin experience<\/em><\/p>\n\n
                      \n
                    • Changed: the old Dashboard page is replaced by the Analytics page; the module toggle and quick stats moved onto it.<\/li>\n
                    • New: onboarding panel that walks a fresh install through enabling the search module and creating a first filter set.<\/li>\n
                    • Improved: the Frontend Search settings page was rebuilt \u2014 grouped sections, a persistent sticky submit bar instead of the old inline save button, and no more toast on every render.<\/li>\n
                    • Improved: filter editor \u2014 richer Add Filter modal with source discovery, expanded Display \/ Locations \/ Advanced tabs, and a faster debounced preview pane.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
                      Compatibility<\/em><\/p>\n\n
                        \n
                      • Compatibility: tested with WordPress 7.1.<\/li>\n
                      • Compatibility: tested with WooCommerce 10.8. Added explicit HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage) and Cart\/Checkout Blocks compatibility declarations via FeaturesUtil::declare_compatibility()<\/code> \u2014 FalcoSearch never reads or writes order data, so it no longer appears under WooCommerce's incompatible-plugins list.<\/li>\n
                      • Compatibility: tested with Elementor 4.1 and Elementor Pro 4.1. The Filters \/ Chips \/ Sorting widgets register through the modern elementor\/widgets\/register<\/code> API and the elementor\/elements\/categories_registered<\/code> category hook.<\/li>\n
                      • Headers: declared WC requires at least<\/code>, WC tested up to<\/code>, Elementor tested up to<\/code>, and Elementor Pro tested up to<\/code> in both the plugin header and readme so WooCommerce and Elementor read the support matrix directly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
                        Fixes<\/em><\/p>\n\n
                          \n
                        • Fixed: search results could fatal on stores with percent-discount coupons that have no description \u2014 the coupon suggestion used wc_format_coupon_amount()<\/code>, which no longer exists in current WooCommerce. Now formatted with wc_format_decimal()<\/code>.<\/li>\n
                        • Fixed: filtered archives 404'd on \/page\/2\/<\/code> once a filter narrowed the result set below one page. Out-of-range paged requests now redirect to page 1 of the same URL, preserving every fs_*<\/code> \/ s<\/code> \/ orderby<\/code> parameter.<\/li>\n
                        • Fixed: the Elementor Filters \/ Chips \/ Sorting widgets failed to register on Elementor 4.x and rendered empty in the editor. The widget layer was rewritten against the current registration API.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
                          Developer<\/em><\/p>\n\n
                            \n
                          • New: Playwright end-to-end suite under tests\/e2e\/<\/code> covering the search modal and the filter engine.<\/li>\n
                          • New: npm run ci<\/code> gate \u2014 engine check, package-json lint, PHP lint, both builds, and tsc --noEmit<\/code>. npm run release<\/code> produces the wordpress.org zip via scripts\/create-zip.js<\/code>.<\/li>\n
                          • Backward compatibility: every setting, shortcode, hook, REST endpoint, and option key from v1.0.5 is unchanged.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
