   I know this subject was discussed before;

   http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-search-everything-highlight-search-terms-no-usable-if-search-term-is-in-link-title?replies=4

   but unfortunately the link to the fix isn't working anymore.

   Does anyone know how to solve this Problem?

   thx

   I've just downloaded Search Everything & discovered the issue of garbled post titles on my results page when searched for word/s are in the post title & highlighting is turned on in the plugin.

   To fix this behaviour I suggest you check the search.php file for your chosen theme. Mine was using:

   <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>

   to output the post titles in the search results.

   I changed it to:

   <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>

   That subtle change fixed the problem on my site.
