Will WP Fast Total Search Do This?

    Hello,

    The above website link currently links to 1700+ documents, using a plugin called Document Library Pro. You can see this plugin in action by visiting the provided link, then expanding the folders. Individual documents can then be viewed in a different tab and/or downloaded.

    The Document Library Pro plugin is currently set up to link to external documents (on the server), but CAN be configured to link to documents that are imported into the WordPress Media Library.

    All that information is necessary for you to understand my question about WP Fast Total Search:

    I need to be able to search the 1700+ documents for certain keywords, then display the search results. For example, I might be searching for the terms “Section 516”, and would expect in this case to at least return the name of the document(s) that this phrase appears in. Will your WP Fast Total Search plugin be able to accomplish this on the EXTERNAL files as they are currently stored? If not, if those 1700+ documents are imported into the WordPress Media Library, would your plugin then be able to do these type of searches?

    I see where your plugin documentation says that it searches “posts”, but these 1700+ documents are not posts. They are currently files stored in directories on the server, but as I said, they COULD be imported into the WordPress Media Library, if that is what is required to do these types of searches.

    Regards,

    Hi, Larry

    Yes, we have a special Addon for the Document Library Pro that indexes attached files (it doesn’t matter where files are located, because DLP records (“Documents”) ARE wp_posts themselves. So the result will be a set of DLP records.

    Please contact me in live chat at https://fulltextsearch.org since we are discussing Pro version here that is not good for this resource.

    Thanks!
