About this tool.
SG5 InsightHub connects your WordPress or WooCommerce site to the InsightHub engine and upgrades your on-site search with AI-powered matching, typo correction, synonyms and relevance ranking — while giving you a full picture of what your visitors are actually searching for.
Search
- Three refinement modes — Off (analytics only), Refine (the engine steps in only when native WordPress search finds nothing) and Replace (the engine ranks and returns every search result).
- Typo correction and synonyms — a zero-result search is retried with the engine’s corrected term or synonym, with a clear “showing results for…” notice.
- Products and content together — products, variations, posts and pages are matched and interleaved by true relevance.
- Works with your theme — supports WooCommerce layered-nav filtering and sorting, and routes search requests through the standard results page so refinement and analytics apply consistently.
Analytics
- Log every search with its result count, the products and content shown, and whether the engine recovered a search that would otherwise have returned nothing.
- Optional visitor and customer attribution for search analytics, fully consent-gated (WP Consent API compatible).
WooCommerce extras (all opt-in, off by default)
- Order tracking — push completed orders to the engine for search-to-purchase analytics.
- Abandoned-cart capture and recovery — capture carts (with checkout consent), send recovery emails from the engine, and restore carts via a one-click link.
- Reviews slider — show your latest product reviews anywhere with the [sg5ih_reviews] shortcode.
Chat widget
Optionally embed the InsightHub chat widget, which can answer shopper questions and look up their orders (opt-in).
Privacy
The plugin integrates with the WordPress privacy tools: personal data collected through abandoned-cart capture is included in Tools → Export Personal Data and Tools → Erase Personal Data, and suggested privacy-policy text is provided. Customer identity fields are only ever sent when you enable the corresponding toggle.
For analytics — search logging and abandoned-cart capture — the anonymous visitor id is only used after statistics consent when a consent plugin is active. Two features are different, because they are functional rather than analytical: form conversions, and order attribution when order tracking is on. For those the ih_vid cookie is set for every visitor of a page carrying such a form, and on the checkout page. It holds a random first-party identifier and no profile, and exists only to link something the visitor deliberately submitted — a lead, or an order — to the visit it came from. With conversion tracking switched on and set up in InsightHub, the choice made there applies instead: without cookies (nothing is stored in the browser; InsightHub recognises a returning visitor by IP address and browser identification), for the browser tab only (a session cookie that ends with it), or with a cookie set only after statistics consent and removed when consent is withdrawn.
