README

A search plugin for Kirby 3 that searches for full word combinations rather than just individual words.

Installation

  • unzip master.zip as folder site/plugins/kirby-bettersearch or
  • git submodule add https://github.com/bvdputte/kirby-bettersearch.git site/plugins/kirby-bettersearch or
  • composer require bvdputte/kirby-bettersearch

Usage

Instead of the default $pages search method, use $pages->bettersearch($querystring, $options) or $site->bettersearch($querystring, $options) instead.

Since we're looking for full query matches, following options have been removed:

  • stopwords
  • minlength
  • words

customIndexer

If you need to manipulate the content somehow, you can now pass a customIndexer function into the bettersearch function to alter the content.
