Partial Search Term

    Is it possible to configure relevanssi to match a certain part of the search term?
    For example, if a user searches for the term “running” to return all results that match “run”. I understand relevanssi does partial matching when the search term matches the beginning or the end of the result, but I need the opposite for the result to match a part of the search term.
    Thank you.

    You can modify the search term before the search is done. It’s possible to automatically convert all searches for “running” to searches for “run”. You can use the relevanssi_modify_wp_query filter hook to change the search term (which is in $query->query_vars['s']).

    If you’re looking for stemming in general, there’s Relevanssi Snowball Stemmer which does stemming in English (and several other languages), but that requires Relevanssi Premium.

    Yes, stemming is what I need. Thank you very much!
