# Search in Maker

**Edit theme** → **Theme settings** → **Search**.

![Maker Search in Theme settings](https://support.troopthemes.com/_images/maker/search--settings.jpg)

These settings control Shopify's [predictive search](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/storefront-search/predictive-search) panel that opens as a customer types in the header search, not the full search results page layout.

## Theme settings → Search (Maker)

- **List heading**: label above the default suggestion list, for example "Popular searches."
- **Default list**: a menu of links shown before the customer types anything.
- **Show popular products**: turns on a product suggestions block in the empty search state.
- **Popular product heading**: label above that block, for example "Popular products."
- **Popular products**: up to 4 products to feature there. Leave it blank and the theme fills it with your best-selling products automatically.

## Troubleshooting (Maker)

- **Popular products showing products I did not pick**: the **Popular products** field is empty, the theme is filling it with best sellers. Add products there to override it.
- **Nothing shows before I type**: **Default list** has no menu assigned, or that menu has no links.
- **Search results page looks wrong**: that is a separate template (**Edit theme** → template selector → **Search**), not this settings group.
