To enable the autocomplete functionality on the search bar, you can follow these simple steps:
First, make sure that your ecommerce platform supports autocomplete functionality. 
Integrate a search engine or plugin that offers autocomplete capabilities, such as Elasticsearch or Algolia. 
Now configure the settings to enable the autocomplete suggestions based on relevant product names, descriptions, and popular search terms. 
Finally, test and optimize the autocomplete feature to provide accurate and efficient suggestions to enhance the user experience and improve search performance.
