Core search

Search every kind of content on your site — instantly, in any language, with the matching logic you choose.

Wide content support

Any custom post type, custom fields, taxonomy terms, attachments, users, WooCommerce, ACF, WPML, the Events Calendar, plus PDF, text and Office file contents.

Unlimited search bars

Create as many search instances as you want, each with its own configuration, shortcode and widget — or just one, if that’s all you need.

Every language

Full support for Chinese, Hebrew, Hindi, Cyrillic and every other script, including special characters and accents.

Fuzzy or exact logic

Choose fuzzy matching, exact matching, or both via primary and secondary keyword logic — with an optional front-end exact-match toggle.

Smart autocomplete

Multi-source autocomplete and keyword suggestions from Google, post titles, tags, categories, the search index or any taxonomy.

Synonyms engine

Bidirectional synonym expansion at query time, applied to taxonomy term searches too, with stale-index warnings when changes need a re-index.

Filtering & experience

Let visitors narrow down exactly what they want — with rich filters and results that look great on any device.

Every filter type

Categories, tags, custom taxonomies, custom fields, ACF, price, attributes, dates and numeric ranges — as checkboxes, radios, selects, searchable multiselects, sliders, range sliders and datepickers.

Required filters

Make selected filters mandatory before a search runs — perfect for directories and structured catalogs.

Results grouping

Group results by post type, category or any source so visitors instantly see what kind of result they’re looking at.

Four results layouts

Vertical, horizontal, polaroid and isotopic live-results layouts — plus a compact search-icon layout that expands on click.

Smart image parser

Scans content, excerpt or custom fields to pull the best-quality thumbnail for each result automatically.

Fully responsive

The container adapts to its parent element and reacts to device orientation flips, with per-device behavior you can adjust.

Load more & infinite scroll

Page through large result sets with a load-more button or seamless infinite scroll.

Media lightbox

Open image results in a built-in lightbox — ideal for galleries and media-heavy sites.

Result priorities

Promote specific posts, products or terms to the top of results with rule-based priority groups, with multisite per-blog targeting.

Performance

Built to stay fast on huge catalogs — everything runs on your own server, with no third-party service.

Index table for big sites

A rebuilt indexing engine with live stats, size-history charts and cursor-based re-indexing — keeping search fast even with tens of thousands of products. (One customer: 10,000+ products in under 2 seconds.)

Built-in caching

Disk and database cache methods mean repeated searches use little to no database — designed for sites with massive traffic.

Local & private

No third-party search service. Every query runs on your server, so no data leaves your site and there are no per-query fees.

Perfect PageSpeed

Highly optimized CSS and JavaScript built to achieve a 100/100 Google PageSpeed Insights score.
