Security, performance, marketing, and design tools — Jetpack is made by WordPress experts to make WP sites safer and faster, and help you grow your traffic.
When Jetpack Search is enabled, the "Product Search" block does not search for partial text matches.
Steps to reproduce
Searching seems to be heavily cached and I recommend using a new private window for each search test.
Create a new WooCommerce store and import some products.
Access the Site Editor and add a "Product Search" block to the navigation, if it isn't there already.
In a private window, open the site and do a partial search for a product title. I used sample Woo products, tested with the "Beanie" product, and searched for "bean". You should see products returned.
Close all private windows to clear any caches and install JP/enable JP search.
Open a new private window and search for the same term in step 3. It should return no results.
In the same window, search for a full word in the product title from step 3 (eg "beanie"). It should return results.
