Configuration values that affect search

There are several entries in the configuration table that affect the behavior of search.

Value Location Meaning
Admin Search Results Per Page Admin > Configuration > Maximum Values Controls pagination for admin search
Default Search Operator Admin > Configuration > My Store Should AND or OR be used between search terms?
Include meta-tags in product search Admin > Configuration > My Store Should search scan the meta tags data?
Products Listing - Number Per Page Admin > Configuration > Maximum Values Controls pagination for storefront search

The flag for whether or not to search the description is not a config variable; it’s hardcoded in your template. See disable search in description.
