While the free version of Relevanssi will match search terms in custom field content, it doesn’t know which custom field had the matching content. Premium has that information and it can be made available. First, you need this in your functions.php: add_filter(’relevanssi_match’, ‘cfdetail’); function cfdetail($match) { global $customfield_data; $customfield_data[$match->doc] = $match->customfield_detail; return $match; } This [...]
Do you want to order your search results in random order? Here’s how: add_filter(’relevanssi_hits_filter’, ‘shuffle_search’); function shuffle_search($hits) { shuffle($hits[0]); return $hits; } Put this code in your functions.php and the search results will appear in random order.
Co-Authors Plus is a neat plugin that makes it possible to have multiple authors for one post in WordPress. This is a useful feature WordPress doesn’t yet support. Relevanssi only picks up the first author from the post, but making Relevanssi find the other authors as well is very simple, thanks to good design choices [...]

( !empty($post->post_excerpt) ? " $post->post_excerpt" : ” ); if ( ‘on’ [...]
From 2.9.13 and Premium 1.7.6 there’s a new filter, relevanssi_results. This filter is given an array containing the search results in (post ID, weight) format. The filter expects to get the same thing back. This filter can be used for processing the hits somehow, modifying the weights and whatever you can come up with. I [...]
In general Relevanssi does work. So, when something doesn’t work – you can’t search for custom field content, results look bad, and so on – that means there’s a problem. If you updated to Relevanssi free 3.0 or 3.0.1 and the plugin doesn’t work anymore, you can probably fix the problem by deactivating and reactivating the [...]
