'Text Suggestions' helps visitors to discover products faster by drilling down to the most relevant Products or Categories that match the 'Search Query'. A category or sub-category appears in 'Search Suggestions' only when it is marked as  'included in the menu' in Magento and if it is indexed for search in Tagalys. Here is an example of how a Category is displayed in 'Search Suggestions'. ![Search suggestio](https://support.tagalys.com/hs-fs/hubfs/New%20images%20-%20Nivetha/Search%20suggestio.png?width=688&name=Search%20suggestio.png) The 'Text Suggestions' can be configured to exclude Categories. Follow these steps in the Magento admin section to exclude a Category from being displayed in 'Search Suggestions'. 1\. Log in to Magento  2\. Navigate to Catalog -\> Categories  3\. Verify if the Category has "Include in Menu = Yes"  ![Magento - Catalo (1)](https://support.tagalys.com/hs-fs/hubfs/New%20images%20-%20Nivetha/Magento%20-%20Catalo%20(1).png?width=688&name=Magento%20-%20Catalo%20(1).png) 4\.
