FAQs

Get answers to common questions you may have about this product.  If you have other pre-sale questions not mentioned here, just send us a message and we’ll be happy to help!

How does this plugin work?

The plugin adds new custom settings perfect integrated directly into the existing Divi Search module. Whenever the plugin is active, helpful new settings will automatically appear inside the Search module.

Is this a new module?

Nope! This is not a new module, but rather an upgrade to the existing Divi Search module. The great part about our unique approach to plugins is that you can install or remove this plugin without adding or removing any existing Search modules!

Does it have live AJAX search results?

Yes, this very exciting feature was added in version 2.0 and is incredible! You can set the search module to show the results in a dropdown below the input field that instantly shows the live results in a beautiful, fully customizable dropdown.

Why is there no visual preview?

Please note that Divi unfortunately cannot render a preview of our custom settings inside the Visual Builder. The custom settings provided by our plugin will take effect on the frontend when you exit the builder.

In the future, we expect Divi version 5.0 to be able to render custom settings, but until then we cannot do anything about it. We recommend keeping your page open in two separate tabs in your browser, one with the Divi builder enabled, and the other on the frontend. Whenever you save changes in the builder, you can immediately refresh the other tab to see the changes take effect.

We apologize for this inconvenience, but hope you can appreciate the value of our helpful and innovative features! The unique nature of our plugin which modifies the existing Divi Builder is too far ahead of its time! 😊

Does this work with the Divi Builder plugin?

Yes, all the settings added by our plugin are added in the existing Divi Search module, which is available in the Divi theme, Extra theme, and Divi Builder plugin when using another theme. The only settings that would be limited with the Divi Builder plugin are settings related to the Theme Builder search results template, because the Theme Builder is not included in the Divi Builder plugin. However, you can simply use our live AJAX search results dropdown, which actually makes this more compatible with using the Divi Builder plugin than without it.

Which purchase option should I choose?

Great question! As you can see we offer several purchase options. These are the licenses that determine how your product can be used.

The Annual Unlimited license is great for anyone who wants to use this product on multiple websites for an affordable yearly fee.

The Lifetime Single license is perfect if you only plan to use the plugin on one site and you don't want to pay recurring fees.

The Lifetime Unlimited license is ideal for anyone who wants use this product on multiple sites and is okay with spending a lot more upfront to advoid recurring fees.

Please review our Product License Policy to learn more about what each license means and what is included.

Can I try before I buy?

​Yes, please access our admin demo sandbox to test the plugin as needed!

Simply click on "Access Admin Demo" at the top of our product page, and this will generate a temporary WordPress installation with the Divi Theme and all of our Pee-Aye Creative plugins. You can then set up and configure our plugins just as you would on a normal site. This will allow you to thoroughly test everything and determine if our plugin meets your needs. ​

To learn more, you can check our quick guide about our admin demo feature.

How do I receive updates?

Our products are eligible for automatic updates to all customers with an active product license. Any time we push out an update with new features, improvements, or bug fixes, you will see a notification in your WordPress dashboard. If we have a big update with important information, we may also send out an email, so be sure to stay subscribed for that information.

Please refer to our Product Updates guide for more information about how you can receive product updates.

Do you offer product support?

How do I use and manage the license keys?

Our plugins use license keys to verify the authenticity of your purchase and allow you to receive automatic updates and support. We have created a full Product License Key Management guide for you to learn how to find, add, delete, deactivate, and generate license keys.

Will this plugin be updated for compatibility with Divi 5?

Yes, this plugin will be updated for full compatibility with Divi 5. However, it's important to understand that Divi 5 is still in its early alpha stage, which means it is under active development by the Divi team. While we are actively working to rebuild this plugin, ongoing changes and core updates in Divi 5 need to be completed before we can finalize the conversion process for third-party products.

During both the Public Alpha and the upcoming Public Beta, it is neither expected nor feasible for third-party products to be fully compatible. The core structure required for us to complete the rebuild of this plugin is not yet finalized, and Divi 5 continues to undergo frequent changes and updates behind the scenes.

As a leading Divi plugin developer, we are fully committed to ensuring this plugin will be updated and compatible with Divi 5. We are making great progress on this, but we kindly ask for your patience during this transition. The process requires significant time and resources, and we truly appreciate your support and understanding.

Rest assured, by the time Divi 5 reaches its full public release, this plugin will be fully rebuilt and compatible, offering the same high-quality features and performance you’ve come to expect.

We will provide more information on how to access these updates as soon as it becomes available. Until then, please be patient and know that we are working diligently to ensure a smooth transition for this plugin.

Thank you for your continued support, understanding, and kindness during this process!

6 reviews for Divi Search Helper

  1. Ludwig P.

    I was looking for a way to integrate an ajax live search into Divi. The Divi Search Helper is the easiest and best solution for that. I also have the option to search for WooCommerce products. That is a huge added value for my websites and customers. The support also responds very quickly and professionally. Nelson always tries to understand and solve the customers problems. He is happy to accept suggestions. A very pleasant conversation with him.
    Nelson and his team do the greatest job of making Divi even better. Thank you for that!

    • Nelson Lee Miller (aka The Divi Teacher) (verified owner)

      Thank you Ludwig, I really appreciate your feedback and kind words! I was happy we could help add the SKU search for product variations!

  2. Chris (verified owner)

    It’s a brilliant add on to the lacking Divi search module. You have a lot of control on what can be searched and the Ajax visual results is awesome. A must for any Divi user who uses the search module.

    • Nelson Lee Miller (aka The Divi Teacher) (verified owner)

      Thank you, Chris! I’m so glad you like all this plugin has to offer! Agreed, it’s a must have plugin for Divi! I appreciate you sharing!

  3. Juan Rios (verified owner)

    Is really awesome plugins and have many many ways to change the style of how can show the products.. The AJAX option is the best thing that I found

    • Nelson Lee Miller (aka The Divi Teacher) (verified owner)

      Thank you, Juan! I’m so glad you like it and are finding it easy to use and useful! We are quite pleased with the AJAX search feature too!

  4. Deborah Sher (verified owner)

    Divi Search Helper is an excellent addition to my web development tools. It works exactly as stated and I’ve received outstanding customer support.

    • Nelson Lee Miller (aka The Divi Teacher) (verified owner)

      Hi Deborah, I really appreciate this, thank you for sharing your experience!

  5. Jay Choquette (verified owner)

    As a web design agency, we use a wide variety of plugins and many of them from Pee-Aye Creative including the Search Helper, Contact Form Helper, Assistant, and Responsive Helper plugins. They make our build outs better, faster, and more efficient. Not only that, but the support is second to none. Thanks Nelson!!!

    • Nelson Lee Miller (aka The Divi Teacher) (verified owner)

      Thank you, Jay! I love hearing that you are using so many of our plugins, and finding them valuable in your business! Thank you for sharing!

  6. Quentin Piganeau

    I’m trying to ensure that the search bar appears when clicking on a magnifying glass icon (like in the standard Divi menu) because I don’t have much space in my header. I can’t find this anywhere. Do you plan to implement this functionality in future updates?

    • Nelson Lee Miller (aka The Divi Teacher) (verified owner)

      We don’t have any feature to reveal a search bar on icon click at this time. In general, this plugin is a Search module helper, so we don’t have any plans to modify the old depreciated header search bar in Divi. You can use the Theme Builder and Search module instead.
