Keyword Search

This is a great plugin. It has worked really really well for the needs of my client. It has taken a considerable amount of editing to make it fit their style as well as adding functionality.

Unfortunately I have had to edit multiple core plugin files so any future updates will render them inert. So I will have to be careful.

I have copied over the search.php file into my theme and edited it to fit with our design. This allows the Search Widget to function and display properly. Unfortunately this kills they standard search.

My question is… is there any way to use Keyword Search with Car Demon while still maintaining the widget?

I imagine I just need to modify the query before the loop but I’m going crosseyed currently. Even though there aren’t too many responses here I figure I’d try.
