I have the code below, when the user enter 3 letters in the autocomplete search field it appears the results, if there are results.
For example if the user introduce 3 letters for a conference name like "con" it appears "conference 1", "Conference ", etc.
If the user introduces the name of a city like "New" it appears "Newcastle".
But, do you know, if there are no results that correspond to the 3 letters introduced by the user how to show a message like 'No results correspond to the search'?
$("#search").catcomplete({
source: "{{ URL::to('autocomplete-search') }}",
minLength: 3,
select: function(conference, ui) {
if(ui.item.category=="Conferences"){
window.location.href = ui.item.url;
}
else{
$.get(ui.item.url, function(result) {
var newConferences = '';
let imageUrl = ! conference.image ? '/img/test.png' : conference.image;
var placeholder = "{{route('confeerences.show', ['id' => '1', 'slug' => 'demo-slug'])}}";
$.each(result, function(index, conference) {
var url = placeholder.replace(1, conference.id).replace('demo-slug', conference.slug);
newConferences += '<div>\n' +
' <div>\n' +
' <img src='+ imageUrl +' alt="Card image cap">\n' +
' <div>\n' +
' <h5>'+conference.name+'</h5>\n' +
' </div>\n' +
' </div></div>';
});
// add the HTML to the #conferences div
$('#conferences').html(newConferences);
}, 'json');
}
}
});
