PlusMagi Site Search

PlusMagi Site Search is a comprehensive search solution designed to replace the limited default WordPress search. It provides a fast, modern, and highly relevant search experience by indexing content that WordPress usually ignores, such as Custom Fields and Meta Data.

Whether you are running a simple blog or a complex membership site, Smart Access Control ensures that search results are filtered based on the user’s role. Editors see everything, while guests only see what is public.

Features

• Ajax Live Search: Instant search results with zero page refreshes.
• Smart Access Control: Filters results for Public, Authors, and Admins dynamically.
• Deep Search Capability:
  • Post Titles and Content.
  • Custom Fields (meta data like SKUs and internal codes).
  • Taxonomies (Categories and Tags).
• Organized Search Results: Results are grouped into Posts, Category, and Tag tabs.
• Visual Enhancements: Shows featured images (thumbnails) in the search dropdown.
• Advanced Search Filters: Use prefixes like post:, tag:, or category:.
• Developer Friendly: Supports shortcode [plusmagi-site-search] and Block Editor.
• High Performance: Optimized with lightweight Ajax calls.
