Yes, you can change the number of autocomplete results using the **`resultLimit`** option of the **`swiftypeConfig`** JavaScript object. Add the following code to your theme’s **`functions.php`** file:

```auto
function swiftype_javascript_config() {
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
var swiftypeConfig = {
  resultLimit: 5 // set to your desired number of results
};
</script>
<?php
}

add_action('wp_head', 'swiftype_javascript_config');

```

**NOTE:** This will not affect the number of results returned on the search results page.
