Automatic indexing (when content is updated or added)

    Hi,
    I’m a web developer for a relatively large client who run a small blog in tandem with their main site. I’ve been tasked with setting up a search plugin for their blog which can:-

    1. Be referenced externally (i.e. standard wordpress allows this via the GET parameter ‘s’)
    2. Work with WPML (which I noticed you mention as being compatible, but you don’t appear in their ‘compatible plugins list’)
    3. Have priority orders tweaked (which you have)
    4. Be paginated (including choosing the number of results per page)
    5. Faceted (i.e. a search within a category, etc.)
    6. Require no work from our contributors to be used

    Most of these seem easily possible with your plugin. The one I’m mainly concerned about is: If a contributor were to write or update an article, would the index need to be manually indexed?

    Thanks

    Indexing is fully automatic, after you run it manually the first time.

    All of these are not a problem with Relevanssi. Well, depends a bit on what you mean with your first item – Relevanssi uses the same parameters as the default WP search, so you can point to a search results page without problems.

    But if you’re looking for something like REST API access, Relevanssi does not work with the default REST API end points. You need to build your own.

    Relevanssi is compatible with WPML, yes: there’s a setting that controls whether the search results include posts from all languages or just from the current language.

    Thanks for the reply. I won’t need a REST API as far as I’m aware. Something as simple as an HTML form with the input box using ‘s’ for the search term on our main site is what’s needed, and it sounds like you have what I’m looking for.

    I’ll set this thread to resolved.
