Hi Axon/Akira Theme Team,

We’re using your theme along with the included nrtsearchbar module, and we've noticed a critical performance issue related to the live search functionality.

When users type quickly in the search bar, the module sends multiple POST requests to /search in rapid succession. This causes our server to respond with 500 Internal Server Errors.

This issue appears to be caused by the lack of a debounce/delay mechanism before triggering the AJAX request in the devbridgeAutocomplete configuration.

The devbridgeAutocomplete library already supports a built-in option called deferRequestBy.
We suggest simply adding the following to your JS initialization:

deferRequestBy: 500,

This should be included here (in front.js or front.min.js):

i.find("input[name=s]").devbridgeAutocomplete({  serviceUrl: e,  appendTo: s,  type: "POST",  dataType: "json",  paramName: "s",  minChars: 3,  deferRequestBy: 500,  params: { resultsPerPage: r, nrtAjax: 1 },  ...
});

• Prevents excessive server load and 500 errors

• Improves UX (no more broken searches while typing fast)

• Clean, native solution — no need for custom debounce logic

Could you please consider integrating this into the next version of the theme/module?

Let me know if you need any logs or examples from our server — I’d be happy to share.

Thanks for your support and for the great theme!

Best regards,
