I looked thought all the options but nothing seemed to do this. I’m looking for something that would suggest items the way AJAX does it when the user clicks the search but before they have started typing. This lists can be automatically generated based on popularity or something, or from a list I set. Anything along those lines or ways to achieve this.
Failing this being part of it is there a process to add this in anyway maybe by making a plugin that ties into it? I am a developer just never made any plugins for WP before but would be willing to look into it if it might gain me this feature(assuming it’s possible).

I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.
Currently, the plugin doesn’t provide this feature but it may be implemented in the future version of the plugin.
To achieve this, you have to develop custom code.
Developing custom code for custom functionality is beyond the scope of support that we provide here.
Best regards,

Would this code be put right into your plugin, wouldn’t that mess with updates? Or would this code be as a separate plugin accessing Ivory. Just looking for an angle to start on this that would be the most stable long term.

If you are developing custom code then keep it in the separate plugin so that the Ivory Search plugin update won’t affect it.
