Can you exclude SKU numbers from search results on Shopify?

A number of popular search terms on my Shopify store include model numbers of vehicles, such as 911, 993 and so forth. Unfortunately, a search for these keywords/numbers picks up unrelated products because the same search terms are contained in various product SKUs, i.e. pixel dimensions, other code. Modifying SKUs is not possible so can the SKU portion of Search be removed?

Hi @morepower,

Currently, you can only edit it with the app. Shopify search form doesn't support this, refer: https://shopify.dev/themes/navigation-search/search

Refer app: https://apps.shopify.com/searchanise or https://apps.shopify.com/product-filter-search

Hope it helps!

You can disable searching by SKU, description, etc... from search if you use this app https://apps.shopify.com/ultimate-search-and-filter-1. It lets you limit the fields that should be returned in the result. To do that, go to App settings => Search index in the app.
