Searchy

설명

The Purpose: allowing your users to search differently

Ajaxed search engines
Whenever a large amount of items is available, be it houses for rent
or computer spare parts, providing your users with a fast, structured, faceted search
can be one thousand times more efficient, rather than letting your visitors sink into hundreds of web pages,

This tool does not replace or try to extend the build in textual search feature of WordPress;
it aims to provide a quick bootstrap to an ajaxed search engine, demonstrating how easy it can be to turn
your website into a powerful search tool, without installing a huge and bloated code.

It is easy to hack and to extend at your will.
You can read here the original article about why Searchy was built.

Main Features

Let your users search combining different criterias: Filter by name, category, tag, or custom field (=1).
Sort results by date, name or custom field (numeric)

Typical usage

Searchy is a customizable search engine composed of two elements: the search filters – typically a filters column, and the search results.

Use the searchy_filter shortcode or the built-in widget to show the filters column.
Place the searchy_results shortcode in a WordPress page to show the sort bar and the search results.
Of course those go in square brackets in a chosen Page.
You can place them one after the other, having searchy_filter and searchy_results close,
Or get fancy building your custom layout, placing some do_shortcode calls wherever you want.
