Elevated Site Search – New Live Search Plugin With Ranked Results for WordPress

Elias from Elevated Extensions has announced the release of Elevated Site Search. It adds a fast, typo-tolerant search bar to any WordPress site and provides live, ranked results as visitors type.

How To Add A Search Bar

With Elevated Site Search, you can add a powerful live search bar to your WordPress site, enabling your users to find what they’re looking for quickly and accurately via ranked results. These results are drawn from posts, pages, custom post types, taxonomies, and custom fields.

Check out the features:

• Replaces native WordPress search
• Lightweight, modern and highly customizable
• Indexes and handles any post type you have registered on your site
• Searches through custom fields (including ACPT, Meta Box and Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) ), taxonomies and more data points
• Built-in fuzzy matching (typo-tolerant)
• Purpose-built index with BM25 ranking algorithm
• Keyboard shortcut opens search with ⌘K or Ctrl+K
• “Did you mean?” plus recent suggestions
• Light and dark themes
• Native elements for Breakdance and Oxygen
• Works with any theme or builder

You can easily add a live search bar to blogs, documentation, news and magazines, as well as knowledge bases, to search across blog posts, guides, API references, articles, comments, tags and help docs. Do you have a blog with over 50,000 posts? Not a problem!

Elevated Site Search is available as a single plugin with annual plans, or as part of the All Access Pass lifetime plan.

Could it be considered as an alternative to SearchWP? Let us know in the comments. We will be testing Elevated Site Search and will eventually replace SearchWP with it here on Ahoi.dev.
