    Hey Guys,

    We are running into issues with searching products. For example, we have several products with titles like this:

    AC/DC

    Most of our visitors are entering the search term ‘acdc’. But that give no results.

    Any suggestions on how to make these products searchable?

    Thanks a lot in advance,

    Jordy

    By default, Relevanssi replaces slashes with spaces, so “AC/DC” becomes “AC DC” and isn’t indexed, because the words are too short.

    Add this to your site:

    add_filter( 'relevanssi_punctuation_filter', 'rlv_adjust_punctuation' );
    function rlv_adjust_punctuation( $replacements ) {
        $replacements['/'] = '';
        return $replacements;
    }

    Rebuild the index, and now “AC/DC” is indexed as “ACDC”.
