Layered Navigation extension for Magento is a necessary tool for those who want to improve product search filtering on the website. Layered Navigation optimizes store navigation and enables customers to find the desired items quickly and easily.<\/p>\n
Navigation filters appear automatically in the overhead left column on the Catalog and Search results pages and are adjusted according to the detailed product attributes or search parameters. Thus we have one set of filters for the handbags catalog and the other for men\u2019s belts. AJAX layered navigation <\/a>for Magento provides filtering products without page reloading.<\/p>\n A store administrator has full control over the filter settings and their look. For example, you can add thumbnails to a category tree or double long list of options. Numeric values can be defined in a slider or a \u2018From \u2013To\u2019 field.<\/p>\n Layered navigation makes it simple to find products based on price range, category, or any other convenient attribute. Layered navigation usually resembles in the left column of search outcomes and category pages and sometimes on the home page. The standard exploration includes a \u201cShop By\u201d list of sections and price range. You can configure the appearance of layered navigation, including product count and price range.<\/p>\n Layered navigation can be practiced to search for products by category or by attribute. For example, when a shopper picks the Mens\/Shorts category from the top navigation, the initial results comprise all products in the category. The list can be refined further by choosing a specific style, color, material, climate, pattern, or price\u2014or a combination of values. Filterable attributes appear in an expanding section that lists each characteristic value. As an option, the menu of products with matching results can be configured to include products with, or without, a match.<\/p>\n Frontend Features<\/strong><\/p>\n Save time of your customers <\/strong> Motivate your customers to come back<\/strong> Provide more search flexibility<\/strong>
