Installation

3. See the TwitterSearch menu for options.

Faq

I get this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: simplexml_load_file()

WP-TwitterSearch requires PHP5 and that error means your using PHP4. I have no plans to make it work with PHP4. You can contact your host for more info about your server supporting PHP5.

Where is the widget?

As of v1.1 you can now use the sidebar widget to display the twittersearch feed. This is currently limited to one widget and can have its own search terms and limit. The next release will support multiple widgets with independent options.

How do I display my latest tweet?

There are a ton of great plugins that display your tweets, there was no need to create another. This plugin is for search.twitter.com only.

Do I have to provide credit when using the plugin?

Nope, you are free to use it however you like no credit needed. However, if you wish to provide a link back to this plugin there is an option to enable credit. This defaults to no, but if switched to yes a ‘powered by’ will show up below the plugin on your site. Again, this is default to no.

I have another question!

Good, you can either email me at james.fleeting[at]gmail.com or post in the wordpress forums. I’m always browsing around.

Future Plans

1. Add the remaining Twitter Advanced Search options
2. Allow for multiple widgets each with its own options
3. Location based search (input a zip code and distance)
4. Add a button to the Visual Editor to add a shortcode
5. Display results from a username and tags from a post
6. Cache the result for a period of time?
7. Should the tweets display in an unordered list? divs/spans? Should you be able to choose?

Description

Extends the standard WordPress search to include data from posts, pages, comments, and meta-data, as well as the full content of data inserted by plugins. This last feature makes it unique amongst search plugins. For example, you may have a plugin that uses shortcodes to insert data:

[product 1]

The standard search will just see the shortcode. Search Unleashed will see the actual data inserted into your post.

Search phrases are highlighted, as are incoming searches from Google, Yahoo, and most other search engines. This makes it very easy to see exactly what phrase matched and why the post is being shown.

Searches can be restricted to specific categories, tags, or meta-data. For example, you can search for ‘persian’ in the ‘cats’ category.

• Transparently extends WordPress search with a full text search that supports wildcards and logical operations
• Search through posts, pages, comments, meta-data, urls, and titles
• Priority based searching – configure how much priority to give to the various parts of a post
• Extendable search engines. Comes with three search engines (standard, MySQL fulltext, and Lucene)
• Data from plugins is included in the search – this is very important as previously any plugins that inserted data into posts were not included in searches
• Everything can be configured – select exactly what data you want to search
• Smart highlighting that shows a contextual snapshot of the search data
• Incoming search highlight. Searches made through Google, Yahoo, Altavista, Baidu, Sogou, and MSN are all highlighted
• No changes are made to standard WordPress database tables
• Advanced search widget

The plugin is available in: * English * Deutsch by Frank Bueltge, Gerhard Lehnhoff, and Andre * Swedish by Olle Hellgren * Russian by Lecactus * Italiano by Dario * Dutch by Evert * French by Vincent Granger * Polish by Krzysztof Kowalik * Spanish by Ivan Garcia * Turkish by Mehmet Karac * Japanese by Hiroaki Miyashita * Chinese by Yunfang Shang * Brazillian Portuguese by Joao Miguel * Danish by Georg S.

How does this work?

An index is made of all appropriate data, including the output from any plugins. Typically this does not occur as the standard WordPress search is made against raw data, as opposed to data that has been processed by plugins.

Only relevant data is included in the index to keep the index as small and fast as possible.

The index is updated anytime a post is edited.

Description

This plugin adding autocomplete functionality to search input field. It is using core jQuery library as well as autocomplete jquery plugin from http://www.pengoworks.com/workshop/jquery/autocomplete.htm

This plugin requires zero configuration, but since version 1.2.0 there is admin screen where you can enable the extra ‘number of matches’ next to each option. You just need to activate and it’s ready to be used in the blog. The plugin is tested with Wordpress 2.6.5, but until there aren’t big core changes, it sould work for all future releases. I don’t have information if this plugin will work with older versions of Wordpress, but for sure it is working with 2.6.x. The last version 1.2.0 is tested on WP 2.7.1.

New in 1.2: This version could display number of matches found in the blog. New in 1.2.1: Small fix for table prefixes and adding autosubmit once the item from the list is selected.

I would appreciate if you write an review/post in your blog with a link to my page: nik.chankov.net. Thanks!

Settings

Go to Admin area under the Settings section. There is Autocompleter menu from which you can extend the plugin with ‘matched items’ option.

Why this plugin is useful for users of your blog?
It’s useful because they can easily check what themes you writing for, and this way they could find the desired article more easily.

Is it possible to use it with non standart search like Google Custom Search Engine or similar?
Well, depends. Current version (1.1.2) reqires the name of the input field to be “s”, so if your search field has such name, there is no problem at all.

Is it heavy for my blog?
No, it selecting results from two joined tables, and it is not heavy at all.

Is it secure?
Thank you for that question . Actually it’s escaping the search string with functions provided from Wordpress, so if you find Wordpress secure, means that the plugin is secure as well.

Use Contact the author for suport and other questions. Thanks!
