index a separate MySQL database?

  • We have some WP pages that display results from information stored in a MySQL database that is on the same server, but separate from the WP database. Is there any way for Relevanssi to index that content?

    These WP pages contain a php script that gets and displays this other-database info (and we can alter that script, if this would help Relevanssi index the content somehow.)

    Yes, if the data is connected to WP pages or posts in Relevanssi index, you can probably add the content.

    You can use the filter relevanssi_content_to_index to add any content you wish to posts before they are indexed. Create a function that reads the other-database info and adds it to the post content at that point, and Relevanssi will see it.

    Of course, this means Relevanssi won’t notice any changes in the other-database info, unless the posts in Relevanssi index are reindexed.
