Hi guys.

@gws, @AMurray
Universal AJAX Live Search is not a search engine like SmartSearch, but a module that collects (via plugins) in itself a results of all search engines that are in system, including Joomla SmartSearch and Searches from many popular third-party components. So SmartSearch cannot be a full replacement.

@ joomberto
It is a pity to find out that there is no version for J4. I was going to buy it for my new project. I don’t think there is an alternative to this. Since it was not for J3 either. I think you should ask this question to the developer. Perhaps the version for J4 on the way.

Thanks @Pavel!

I asked about this topic a long time ago, if in the future they would have a version for J4, but unfortunately it is not on their roadmap.

Greetings!
