Configure Global Customer Recommendations Settings 

Note

The feature is only available in the Enterprise edition applications.

Note

You can also configure customer recommendation search settings on the website level.

You can boost full-text search results based on the history of all registered customers that have interacted with your website. Such boost settings help provide customers with a better user experience, displaying the most relevant products based on customer actions (product views, product placement to a shopping list, product purchases) or total product revenue.

To configure the product full-text search boost settings based on the global purchase history, the total revenue, or the product data only:

  1. Navigate to System > Configuration in the main menu.

  2. Select Commerce > Search > Customer Recommendations in the menu to the left.

Note

For faster navigation between the configuration menu sections, use Quick Search.

Customer Actions Boost

To activate the boost, configure the following options:
