Search functionality is a crucial element of any user experience on a website. With the Findstr WordPress plugin, integrating a powerful search feature has never been easier. Discover how this innovative solution can transform your site in just a few clicks.
Effortless Integration with Gutenberg Blocks
One of Findstr’s greatest strengths lies in its native integration with WordPress’s Gutenberg editor. No need to manipulate code or hire a developer: adding a search field is a matter of seconds.
The Findstr Search Block
To add a search field to any page on your site:
- Open the page editor.
- Click the add block button.
- Search for “Findstr.”
- Select the block and place it wherever you like.
The block automatically integrates advanced features such as:
- Smart Autocomplete
- Real-time Suggestions (Search as You Type)
- Responsive Interface
- Customizable Design – This part may require a bit of CSS structuring.
Search Magnifying Glass in the Menu
Findstr goes even further by offering direct integration into your navigation menu. A single click in the menu settings adds an elegant magnifying glass icon that reveals a search field on demand.
This search magnifying glass includes the same features as the search block:
Powerful and Intuitive Configuration
The Findstr admin interface is designed to provide full control over the search behavior while remaining accessible to non-technical users.
In the content manager, you can:
- Select the types of content to include in the search.
- Choose which Custom Post Types to index.
- Define specific content areas to index.
Optimizing Search Relevance
Findstr allows precise control over search relevance through:
- Weighting by content type (posts, pages, products, etc.).
- Adjusting relevance criteria (title, content, excerpts, etc.).
- Fine-tuning importance scores.
- Setting up exclusions.
Advanced Synonym Management
A synonym management module improves result quality by allowing you to:
- Create synonym groups.
- Support spelling variations.
- Enable multilingual support.
