WordPress search doesn’t search everything, and doesn’t give you enough control over what is searched and how. Relevanssi gives you full access and full control, with plenty of filters and ways to make Relevanssi work the way you want your search to work.
Multisite searches Relevanssi can run searches across many subsites in the same multisite network.
Custom fields Relevanssi will find the content in your custom fields, including things like WooCommerce SKUs, ACF field content or whatever it is you store in custom fields. Read more about custom field search.
User profiles Yes, Relevanssi will find users by their names and profile descriptions.
Taxonomy terms No matter if you prefer categories, tags or custom taxonomies, Relevanssi will return the term archive pages in searches!
Shortcode output Relevanssi can expand shortcodes and find content generated by shortcodes.
Search Relevanssi.com – using Relevanssi, of course!
I wanted to boost the regular search function for a website that contains many documents. I wanted to achieve that searching could be performed much more accurately and visitors are served faster. For this I bought the Relevanssi premium plugin. I received fantastic and fast help for the installation. I strongly recommend going a step further and buy the premium version!

I’d just like to give a shout out to how awesome this plugin is (Premium version). I have a site with pages, standard posts and a custom post for a document library where a couple gigs of PDFs are stored on AWS S3 using another plugin, and Relevanssi does a full-text index of all of it and returns context-sensitive results in less than a second. Plus good documentation and a responsive developer. This is the stuff of dreams.

I’ve used Relevanssi for several years now, and it is an essential plugin on my bigger sites. Relevanssi is an absolute must-have if you want to offer a better user experience on your WordPress website, because we all know how important a good search function is (and how bad the standard WordPress search is). Mikko keeps adding new features – I love the PDF search and more recently the related posts feature. Support is excellent, even for help with non-standard features. Thanks Mikko!
Ultimate FAQs is a FAQ plugin that can be used to create FAQs and add them on your site. The plugin has a search that searches the FAQs on the FAQ page, and if Relevanssi is enabled, that search may be broken. There are two ways to fix these problems. Using Relevanssi The reason the…
Unyson is a free drag & drop framework. It stores the content in a custom field fw:opt:ext:pb:page-builder:json. While Relevanssi can index custom fields, the Unyson custom field is a JSON object that’s hard for Relevanssi to index. Fortunately you can add a function on the relevanssi_custom_field_value filter hook to modify the custom field value before…
Here’s a different approach to WPML searching. By default, you have two options. You can include posts in all languages in the results, or you can only use the current language. This solution checks for matches also in other languages. If Relevanssi finds any, this script then replaces them with the translated posts. You get…
Searching for shop orders is tricky business with WooCommerce. WooCommerce blocks searching the orders. WooCommerce also keeps the order data in many different tables. Because of this complexity, the shop_order post type is not available for indexing. You can enable it by adding this to your theme functions.php: This is not enough, though. The order…
