If you want to auto-direct the user directly to the result if there’s just one result for the search, that’s quite easy. Add the following code to your site: This is not Relevanssi-specific and works just fine even without Relevanssi. If you are using Relevanssi on a multisite system, you need a small change to…
1.13.1 is a quick bug-fix release following on the heels of 1.13. The main target is the user search bug, but I’ve added couple of other bug fixes and improvements. Unless you need the user search, updating is not mandatory. Fixed a bug with numeric taxonomy terms. Fixed a bug in user search. API keys…
A site I’m working with has a handful of “protected” posts (password required to view). For various reasons, we don’t want to show these in search results. While there is no excerpt shown, I’d prefer for people to not even know they exist. Relevanssi sees protected posts as public posts (because their post status is…
Relevanssi Premium 1.13 is finally out. The new version includes fixes for WP 4.0 compatilibity, a bunch of bug fixes and couple of new features. As for the new features, Relevanssi can now pin posts on top of the search results based on keywords. To pin a post, go to the post edit page and…
Relevanssi has been working nicely for the normal usecase. But how does one setup indexing of attachment files. When someone searches by a file name or an extension like pdf, there are no results. I have enabled ‘attachment’ at Relevanssi ‘Indexing options’ and still there are no results. Relevanssi doesn’t index attachment file names. For…
Relevanssi 3.3.6 was released on Friday, and today followed by 3.3.7. You can see the release notes of 3.3.6 below. 3.3.7 just fixes a new incompatibility with bbPress, probably triggered by WordPress 4.0 update. Relevanssi handles taxonomy terms in search better. The change requires a reindexing. Fix in indexing: Relevanssi will now bypass the global…
On one of our sites we have 2 search boxes, one where you can do a normal search and the other where you can search for employees or departments. The employees/department search is done by using the relevanssi_do_query() function. Can we use fuzzy matching on the normal search and disable it on the employees/department search?…
Are post ID’s searchable in Relevanssi? No. Relevanssi does understand the WP_Query p parameter to restrict the search by post ID. However, if you want to search by post ID, it’s very simple to make that happen using the relevanssi_content_to_index filter hook: Add that to theme functions.php, reindex and searching for post ID’s works. Originally…
Suppose you have a parent category with no products in it but a child category does. If you search by the parent category can relevanssi be set up to show the products in the child category? Cars > Wiper Blades. A search for cars shows wiper blade products. By default this does not work, because…
Relevanssi does work with BBPress. BBPress forums, topics and replies are regular WordPress posts. In order to get Relevanssi working with BBPress, you need to make Relevanssi index post type topic (forget forum, and I think it’s better if you skip reply as well). Since topic is non-public post type, you also need to uncheck…
