Hey hunters, We are super excited to announce our Search by Algolia plugin for WordPress. Help us bring relevancy, instant search and autocomplete capabilities to almost 30% of the internet!!! It’s already live on @jasonlk's @saastr blog & on @BostonVC's forentrepreneurs.com (Thanks for the support guys!) With our new plugin, every WordPress user will be able to leverage Algolia in just a few clicks, and replace the default WordPress site search with a blazing fast, highly relevant search engine. We’re going to iterate a lot on the plugin over the next few months (it was built with love by @rayrutjes) - Try it out and let us know what you think!

@dessaigne spoke too soon, apparently we are on a PHP version that;s a little behind, we will have to wait till we upgrade our PHP

this looks excellent - will it also work with bbpress forum content?

@passingnotes the plugin is able to index custom post types, then it comes down to the bbpress specifics. Give it a try! I'd gladly take some time making it bbPress friendly!

@rayrutjes thanks - site isn't live so nothing to test it on but hopefully somebody sees this thread and tries it out!

Content marketing relies on search - and we struggled in our portfolio companies and at SFDC to get search to work kick ass on the blogs and sites. With Algolia, you can now have the best search app inside your websites. Exciting.

Not at all noob friendly. No proper documentation available on how to get started. Only settings available are for connecting to Algolia with the APIs

@rajupp I'm sorry to hear you are struggling, and this plugin is definitely intended for users of all backgrounds. Have you checked the documentation here: https://community.algolia.com/wo... It is an in depth step by step guide. If there is something missing, please tell me, I'd gladly add sections!

Hey @rajupp, hope your first initial impressions didn't turn you off from giving it a try. Take it from this noob, we really strive to make this plugin as easy as possible to use for any Wordpress Blog owner as possible. I'd love to take 5 minutes to see how you experienced the plugin onboarding, to see where we could make it more intuitive. I'm confident we can bring a great search experience to your blog! Feel free to DM me.
