finally an easy and cheap solution

  • I am very happy with the jetpack solution to provide an instant search in the website.

    Is easy and simple. This is good and bad, because works out of the box, you simply need to wait to all your content will be indexed in the jetpack servers, but there are not many options to customize or see statics.

    I expect than in the future the plugin will add more features:

    – Index status / force reindex
    – Manual reindex one custom post
    – Search statics (more searched terms, searched terms without results, …)
    – Weight control to prioritization
    – Exclude some things of the index, like post content, excerpt
    – Custom Redirects
    – Preferences on results, for example first products, second page, third posts

    But I want to say that I am very happy because for the customers is enough and 95% of the results are the expected and very fast, so more easy to have more sales.

    Thanks!

  • Thank you for the feedback Sergio! You are correct, we are working to add a lot more functionality in the future. The first step was releasing the new plugin and there will be more to come. Thank you for testing out Jetpack Search and providing some great features that are of interest to you.

    Hi Sergio,

    I’m Jasper from the Jetpack Search Team. Thanks for your feedback.

    > – Index status / force reindex
    > – Manual reindex one custom post

    We would want this to “just work” and not to require manual actions. If you do experience any issues, please don’t hesitate to contact us thru Jetpack Support.

    > – Weight control to prioritization

    We’ll likely to provide a way to adjust the results and we have a plan for that, but not sure how we actually get it done this year.

    > Search statics (more searched terms, searched terms without results, …)

    Search stats is in our road map, and we are currently working on a prototype.

    > Exclude some things of the index, like post content, excerpt

    We have this in our roadmap too, and we finished some ground work for this and we are about to push this forward.

    > – Custom Redirects

    This could be a cool feature. I’ll file a feature request for this.

    > – Preferences on results, for example first products, second page, third posts`

    Could you please add more details for this? Do you mean options to customize the styling of these items?

    Thanks again.

    Best,
    Jasper
