You can set Relevanssi to index the post author, which will then let you find posts by searching for the name of the author. But what if you want a stricter filter? Where searching for an author would only show posts by that one author, and nothing else? That’s possible too. Add this function to…
Premium 2.4.4 and free 4.3.4 fix couple of long-standing bugs. The process of taking Relevanssi to 100% testing coverage proceeds and going over all the code systematically helped me find and fix a bug that had plagued comment indexing for a long time.

Relevanssi Premium 2.4.4 introduced a new feature where you can target specific parts of the post straight from the search terms. The format for this is {target:search_term} Target can be one of the following: title: Post title. content: Post content. author: Author display name. comment: Comment text. link: Link from another post. excerpt: Post excerpt.…
By default Relevanssi does not index trashed posts. If you want to enable searching for trashed posts in the WordPress admin, it’s simple: all you need to do is to give Relevanssi permission to a) include posts with the trash status in the index and to b) allow the trash status posts to show up…
Relevanssi Premium 2.4.3 is a bug fix release that fixes two rather nasty bugs in 2.4.2. Bug fixes Disabling update_post_metadata_cache seemed like a good optimization move for related posts, but it turns out it also disables related posts thumbnails. We’ll take weaker performance with working images, so that optimization move has now been revoked. Importing…

New features New filter hook relevanssi_indexing_adjust can be used to stop Relevanssi from adjusting the number…
I just wanted to be able to type in a date on the search and for the search to come up with all the blog posts for that date. This is one of those tasks that sounds really simple, but isn’t as simple as could be. However, this question piqued my interest and turns out…

The use case is I run several newspapers, and the “caption” field when uploading media is where the journalists put the photographer credit. We need to be able to index the photographer bylines, but ideally would want to return the story/commentary where their image was used, not the image itself. If you want to index…
Starting from versions 2.4.0 (Premium) and 4.3.0 (Free), Relevanssi doesn’t index posts that have been marked “noindex” in the Yoast SEO settings (“Allow search engines to show this Post in search results?”). If the “noindex” setting is in the default value or set to explicit “yes”, Relevanssi indexes the post. If you want Relevanssi to…
