Can you search products by SKU in the product collection page?

[JTR]

Has anyone found a way to search products by SKU? I've had a look around at previous posts but all I've found is older posts saying it isn't yet possible, is it now possible?

<form class="search" action="/search">
<input type="text" class="collection-searchbar" placeholder="Search by SKU" name="q" value="{{ search.terms | escape }}" />
<input type="submit" value="Search" />
</form>

I tried the tutorial that makes it possible for the storefront search, but I'm trying to get it working for a search form I have in the product collection page.

You can search for a sku using the storefront search.

An example of a working search url is here:
https://jasons-experiments.myshopify.com/search?type=product&q=variants.sku:23200

Notice how the query must be in this format: "variants.sku:23200" where 23200 is the sku code. JavaScript would be needed to make sure the customer is redirected to the correctly formatted url.

Thanks, I followed your tutorial on creating the search.sku.liquid file, I've made that in snippets, just unsure on how to implement it.

    {% paginate search.results by 2 %}
      {% if search.performed %}
        {% for item in search.results %}
          <div class="grid__item" style="display: none !important"></div>
        {% endfor %}
      {% endif %}
    {% endpaginate %}

 Am I to replace the code above from search.liquid with {{ 'search.sku' }}

I followed the steps in https://github.com/freakdesign/Shopify-code-snippets/tree/master/Search%20by%20SKU

Created a search.sku.liquid file and pasted the code.

search?type=product&q=variants.sku:220202

Am able to see the search result of the product. But, i am unable to route to the result page
when SKU is searched  in the search bar. 

Please guide me in this.

Thanks in Advance.!

If you are open to a 3rd party app, this app allows you to search by product title, description, sku, barcode, option, metafield, collection and pages:  https://apps.shopify.com/ultimate-search-and-filter-1

Simply, you have to add your SKU into Product search enhancement METAFIELD created default BY SEARCH & CONSOLE APP 

It work fine without any custom code or theme modification. Function great with any theme
