How can I change the way search results are listed in Woo Commerce?

See if this helps. In the form below. It looks like the code is echoing 'Search Products…' but I don't see that in your example. You could try changing Products to Resources but I would be cautious & maybe copy the line input line or the entire form and comment it out before making the change on the copy.

get_product_search_form()

Select allOpen in new window

Hi,

When using English language and you want to change to a different English string.
This is the way to do using a simple snippet code see the examples from this page
https://www.businessbloomer.com/translate-single-string-woocommerce-wordpress/
Based on their example just replace to use it with the correct string

case 'Products' : 
      $translated = 'Ressources';
break;

Select allOpen in new window

When you need to change a string that is not in English you can simply use Poedit to edit the language file


*Note: You may need to changer other relates strings that contain the word you changed...

Thank you, gentlemen!

Here's what I did:

I couldn't figure out how to eliminate the "Products" dynamic on the default tooltip, even with your suggestions, but...

...your input inspired a different direction and it turned out to be a winner.

I disabled the search icon using the Theme's option and then I installed a plugin that searched the Woo Commerce catalog only. I could dictate how the results were displayed with that approach.

As far as the default functionality, I downloaded another plugin that allowed me to attach an image to a menu item. I used the conventional magnifying glass and attached the link that opened up a search page. The page displays whatever the user is looking for without the headings that were my nemesis in the tooltip.

So, I may have taken the long way around to get it done, but I was able to make it happen!

Thanks for your help!
