## Description

**Rezerla Post List Field Search** adds a **Search in** dropdown next to the search
box on post list screens (`edit.php`). Search by title, content, slug, custom fields,
post meta, or taxonomy — individually or across all configured fields at once.

 * Admin-only — no impact on front-end search
 * Per post type configuration
 * Core fields, post meta, and taxonomies
 * Optional list table columns (Show in table checkbox)
 * Temporary column and highlight when searching by a single field
 * Field discovery for meta keys and taxonomies
 * Lightweight — no frameworks or subscriptions
 * Default configuration for WP Store Locator (`wpsl_stores`)
 * No data collection or external API calls
 * Translations: English (default), Polish, German, French, Spanish, Italian

### Usage example

On a WP Store Locator store list (`edit.php?post_type=wpsl_stores`):

 1. Enter “Katowice” in the search box.
 2. Select **City** in the dropdown.
 3. Click the search button.

URL: `edit.php?post_type=wpsl_stores&s=Katowice&rezerla_plfs_field=city`

### List table columns

Check **Show in table** in field settings to display meta or taxonomy values on 
the list.
 When searching by a single field, that column appears temporarily and
is highlighted even without the checkbox.

## FAQ

### Does it affect front-end search?

No. The plugin runs only in the WordPress admin on post list screens (`edit.php`).

### Can I search multiple fields at once?

Yes — select **All configured fields** (`rezerla_plfs_field=all`).

### Does the plugin collect user data?

No. Settings are stored locally in your WordPress database. No telemetry, analytics,
or external API calls.

### Who can configure the plugin?

The settings page requires the `manage_options` capability (typically administrators).

### Does it work with WP Store Locator?

Yes. On activation, a default configuration is added for the `wpsl_stores` post 
type (address, city, zip code, state, category).

### Which languages are supported?

English (source), Polish, German, French, Spanish, and Italian. More languages can
be added via [translate.wordpress.org](https://translate.wordpress.org/) after the
plugin is published.
