WP Search Extracts

Description

When displaying results from a search many people prefer to display the section of the resulting
post/page that includes the match, rather than the full post or standard excerpt. This plugin adds
a filter to process search results and only display the content either side of the first result
for the given search.

To Do

  • Add automated tests
  • Make the padding around results value configurable
  • Solicit user feedback on further options

Installation

  1. Upload wp-search-extracts to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
