I would like to propose on my site a search engine allowing to find categories (with suggestions), and not posts or pages.

I tried different plugins, including ajax search lite, but without success, because it always necesseray to select as source article or page.

Do you know a solution? With Ajax search lite or others?

Thanks in advance

You can use default wordpress function to search categories. get_terms() is the function you need to use where you need to pass your search string in a search parameter.
