…variable, e_search_props. If that appears in the search results URL (like this: https://www.example.com/?s=term&e_search_props=3881765-2885), try removing the e_search_props variable (like this: https://www.example.com/?s=term). If that helps, the problem with your search is right there. One solution is to check what the parameter includes and then overriding those query parameters in a filter……$replace, $content ); } return $content; } ); Conditional and Inline CSS Load Experiment Elementor has this new experimental feature.

We’re testing this plugin for use on our site and seems to be working great. HOWEVER. we’ve tested the results and it seems that if the search term is matched in the content 1 or 1000 times it still ranks it with the same weight?
if this is the case how can we change this so that it would rank a page higher if it has 5 hits for that term over 1?
We’re only really searching on page title and content, we’re not using tags or categories, so we really need to use the number of times the search term is in the content to help pull more relevant results up the results page.
thanks in advance.
`Scratch that. Seems to be working as i want it to. great stuff.
What if $post->relevance_score is blank or does not exist?
var_dump($post) does not show that field
any ideas?
Yes: are you sure Relevanssi is active? Because if Relevanssi processes posts, that field will be there.
