Polylang: Bilingual search

By default, Relevanssi indexes the different language versions of the posts separately.

But what if you want the French search terms to find the English post…

ACF: Indexing files from File fields

Relevanssi can index attachment contents from files linked to posts with ACF File fields. This does not happen automatically but requires some extra code.

10Web Photo Gallery

The Photo Gallery plugin from 10Web uses a shortcode to add photo galleries to posts and pages. By default, Relevanssi doesn’t index the gallery contents. Photo Galler only registers the shortcode in the front end, so when Relevanssi indexes pages in the admin context, Relevanssi only sees the shortcode, not the gallery contents. To fix…

Premium 2.19 / Free 4.17

Version 2.19.0 (4.17.0 for the free version) was the big maintenance release after the summer break. Version 2.19.1 / 4.17.1 Minor fix: WooCommerce layered navigation compatibility function caused enough problems that I disabled it by default.
