Theme settings → Search.

Setting	Notes
Search mode	`overlay` (default) / `inline` (header has a visible input instead of icon)
Trending search terms	Comma-separated list — shown on empty state
Show featured collection on empty state	Picker for which collection to highlight
Resource types	Toggles: Include products / collections / articles / pages

Type 3–8 single-word terms separated by commas. They render as clickable pills under the input. Clicking a pill triggers a search for that term.

Tip: rotate trending terms seasonally — match what your homepage promotes.

Predictive search

Uses Shopify's /search/suggest.json endpoint. The theme requests max 10 results per type and renders them in grouped sections.

Pressing Enter on the input navigates to /search?q={value} — the full results page. Useful for power users who want filters and pagination.
