You can move the popup with CSS. Try this:

.relevanssi-live-search-results {
  left: 0px !important;
  top: 0px !important;
}

You need to ask that from the Simple Custom Post Order developers, I can’t fix this for them. Relevanssi has always loaded the textdomain at the right time.

Here’s how you can search between dates.

I’m just going to say no. Relevanssi is not the right tool when you have 2.5 million posts. You need an externally hosted search. Check out ElasticSearch.

The Relevanssi indexing is correct. Relevanssi indexes individual words and displays them in alphabetical order.

Does the Relevanssi admin search (Dashboard > Admin search) show you the correct results? Are the results from the Relevanssi admin search different from your front end search? If that’s the case, your front end search is not Relevanssi.

Yes, it’s available in both versions.

Ok, that makes it much clearer.

This is, unfortunately, a case where you need code. This can’t be done with relevanssi_orderby parameters. You need to sort the posts by post title, and then have a function that takes the custom field matches and moves them first.

This would be fairly easy to do with Relevanssi Premium. With the free version, it’s harder. Using the relevanssi_hits_filter is the key in any case.

If you search for “Roma”, all the results will have the word “Roma” in them. So which ones will be first and which ones will be in alphabetical order?

In theory, there’s no limit to how you can sort the search results. Relevanssi gives you full control. You just have to be able to define the algorithm, and if you’re looking for something more complicated, do it in PHP code.

Probably not (it didn’t have any effect when I tested this), but you can try disabling it to see if that helps.

You are using Search & Filter Pro, so it’s possible Search & Filter is overriding this. See if Search & Filter Pro has a way to adjust the order of the results. Also, where have you added these lines?

Yes, you can. It happens exactly as it does in the WP default search, using taxonomy parameters. See documentation here. For example, to exclude product categories 5 and 7, you can use:

add_filter( 'relevanssi_modify_wp_query', function( $query ) {
  $tax_query = array(
    array(
      'taxonomy' => 'product_cat',
      'terms'    => array( 5, 7 ),
      'operator' => 'NOT IN',
      'field'    => 'term_id',
    )
  );
  $query->set( 'tax_query', $tax_query );
  return $query;
} );

Sorry, but I can’t reproduce the problem. The metabox works for me; I can use it to find posts without problems. Metabox does a regular search query, Relevanssi is or is not involved, and I get results. I checked, and Relevanssi shouldn’t stop this query.

Is Relevanssi enabled for admin searches?

You can’t set custom field indexing to “none” because all content in Bricks is stored in the _bricks_page_content_2 custom field. If you disable that, Relevanssi won’t be able to access any of your page content. Relevanssi doesn’t let you do that.

The solution is probably to stop Relevanssi from interacting with that specific search. Unfortunately, I don’t understand what “my select2 search for a metabox ‘post’ field, configured as a custom user field” means. If this is something I can reproduce somehow without buying Metabox, I can look into this if you provide good instructions on how to reproduce this.

The way the search results look like is up to your theme. Relevanssi provides a list of results and if you choose so, better excerpts for the posts, but how those results and excerpts look like to the user depends on your theme’s search results template and stylesheet. So, if you want to modify that, work with your theme.

In that case I don’t unfortunately have an answer. If you’re doing something Generate Press custom to display the search results, try using a plain WordPress search results template instead.
