Did not work, uninstalled

I installed this, hoping for simple search solution. However, no matter what keyword I entered for the search, it returns "not found". Edit: I see that my site is not indexed. Must have suffered a penalty somewhere... Any rate, I have revised my rating to 3 (neutral). Here are the complete instructions given for the plugin: 1. install and activate the plugin on the Plugins page 2. add "Search by Google" widget to your sidebar and customize it You might want to consider adding something about having to be indexed in Google for this to work.

idiot intuitive. couldn't be simpler to use.

now users can do a google search not just of the wordpress part of the domain (the native search box only searches in wordpress), but they can search for products by part # or partial part # or product name etc. in the custom non-wordpress store in the same domain.
