Follow the below steps to fully configure a new configuration, or update just a particular field if you only want to edit an existing configuration. * The settings in the **Site Search** tab manage the Site Search API results: 1. Enable **Show Product Slicing** if you want product variants to be displayed separately in the API results. For example, if enabled then a red shirt and a blue shirt would be listed as separate products. If disabled, then the shirt will be listed as one product with color options for red and blue. See the [Slicing documentation](/pages/product-slicing) for more information about this feature. 2. Set the [**MinMatch**](/pages/minmatch) to determine how much of the search query needs to match a product. Kibo recommends three options: 100%, 75%, and 50%. 3. Set the [**Phrase Slop**](/pages/phrase-slop) to determine how many other words are permitted between a search query. Kibo recommends a value of 1 or 2. 4. Enable [**Auto Correct**](/pages/spell-correction#auto-correct) if you want to automatically switch to an auto-corrected search term if there are no results for MinMatch. 5. Use [**Did You Mean**](/pages/spell-correction#did-you-mean) to offer corrections for misspellings. 6. Add or edit desired [**Field Weights**](/pages/field-weights). 7. Create [**Boost and Bury**](/pages/boost-and-bury) conditions based on product attributes for all Site Search results. This can help boost popular products or bury low margin products. 8. Click **Save** in the top right. * The settings in the **Category Suggestion** tab manage the Suggest2 API category suggestion results: 1. Add or edit desired [**Field Weights**](/pages/field-weights) for categories. 2. Select what [**Return Fields**](/pages/return-fields) should be included in the API response. 3. Click **Save** in the top right. * The settings in the **Product Suggestion** tab manage the Suggest2 API product suggestion results: 1. Add or edit desired [**Field Weights**](/pages/field-weights) for products. 2. Select what [**Return Fields**](/pages/return-fields) should be included in the API response. 3.
