When using product sets in searches, it's important to understand how the
searchable
flag relates to the
online flag.
- A product set appears in search results only if its searchable flag is
true
and it's online.
A product set is online if
it's also online and at least one product within the set is also online. The
online/offline setting takes precedence over the searchable setting.
- If there is a match to itself or any online product within the set, an online and
searchable product set appears in search results. The search results return the
product set regardless of the included products searchable flag settings.
- If its searchable flag is set to
false,
a product set isn't
searchable.
-

Recommendations tab, and specify the products that appear as
