    Hi guys,

    I’ve been considering going with ElasticPress as the search solution for a new project. However I need to be able to include data from some plugins that use custom db tables. The data isn’t fronted by a custom post type.

    Is this possible with custom code? Of will ElasticPress only work for posts / custom post types?

    Cheers

    Hi @menathor,

    We provide all support for the plugin via Github at https://github.com/10up/ElasticPress.

    ElasticPress uses an Indexable class which can be extended to connect any custom table in WordPress to use Elasticsearch. You can take a look at the Post, Term, or User Indexables (which are built into the plugin) for examples. It’s not a small undertaking, however, so keep that in mind.

    If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out via Github to ensure a timely response.
