FAQ

What is the shortcode?

[qmean icon=“yes“ placeholder=“Type to search“ button_bg=“#1a1a1a“ button_height=“40px“ button_width=“40px“ form_class=““ input_class=“form-control“ button_class=““ form_style=“padding:0 0 15px 0″ input_style=““ button_style=““]
Best practices are
1- Use specific named attribute if you don’t know how to use CSS like button_height, button_bg and …
2- Use in set! Either use style attributes for all of them or use class attribute for all of them like form_class, input_class, button_class OR form_style, input_style and …
* You can use all of them but it won’t make sense in general and it is confusing 🙂

[qmean-dym wrapper_class=““]
If you want to show did you mean on search page. wrapper_class is optional

What is the difference of Phrase mode or Word by Word mode?

Word by word mode will look for the most related keyword for each word. For example, if you are looking for „Hoodie With Logo“, it will search for suggestion based on active word. First for hoodie, then for with, and finally for logo.
But for the Phrase mode, it will look for related keywords on the whole phrase. For example, when your finishing „Hoodie With Logo“ It will provide the suggestions on completion, for the whole phrase.

Which mode is better?

Both of them are useful. It depends on your need. Phrase mode can have solid results at the end but fewer suggestions. But WBW can have more suggestions and fewer results because it will suggest the most related keyword from the entire database! it can be useful to optimize your SEO (if user created that phrase and you didn’t predicted it, it is not QMeans’s fault 🙂 )
