    I need to have a “Name” search box, then a “Category” search box and finally a location search box.

    When I typed in the name ‘Athena’ it is bringing in the image. I do not want that in a name search, I want the name to display ‘text’

    Next, in other searches, when I type in the category in the first search field and select a “category” as it is working now, for example, if I type in the category “home insurance” the system function automatically brings up listing. Thus, there is not a possibility to type in a “near location” item to further filter.

    Best regards,

    Thank you for all the support.

    You can change the placeholder text for the “Search” field to “Name”.

    Add the category select dropdown, and then turn off category suggestions. Clicking on suggestions automatically sends the user to that page.

    Can the “Category” be a “search by text” instead of a drop down. The number of categories will be in the hundreds and thus to large of a drop down. Category search “type insurance type” (example “home”)

    That would require a customization.
