Show search hits in results?

    Hi Andrea —

    Thanks for the great plugin & awesome documentation — I have it set up and working. Very happy with it!

    I have two issues I am still trying to solve:

    1) Is there a way to display the portion of the post/page that caused the search result to be returned? I can only get it to return the entire Content field of the page, starting from the very beginning.

    For example if you Google something, the search results will show the portion of the webpage that includes your search term hit. That is what I am trying to replicate on my site.

    2) If there are more search results than the number I set in the “Search max items” field, then the Load More message appears at the bottom of the results. But, this is not click-able, so there is no way to load more results. Is there a way to fix it?

    Thanks!

    Hello!
    Are you using the default configuration of the plugin or you’ve customized your code using plugin’s API?

    If you are using the default configuration you can use “Highlighting settings” to manage the look&feel, isn’t it?

    For the “Load More” button it’s very strange, on my local dev environment works correctly.. what WP version are you using?

    Hi Andrea — thanks for your speedy reply!

    Yesterday I was using the default configuration, but ended up creating my own search results page so I could strip out the HTML and shortcodes that were being left in the excerpt. So I think I have worked around the first issue at this point.

    For the second issue (Load More button), I am on version 4.9.4.

    Thanks!
