    Sorry for the late reply. There is no live search function currently in Link Library. That being said, it should definitely possible to use Ivory Search as Link Library stores all of its data in custom post types. The main question would be how flexible Ivory Search is to search in meta fields associated with custom post types. The post type in Link Library is link_library_links. The meta field for the description is called link_description while the meta field for the URL is called link_url.

    Let me know if this helos and please consider donating to support this plugin’s development.

    Yes, you can create live search functionality to search link library and its fields using the Ivory Search plugin.

    To achieve this, you have to configure both the plugins as displayed in these screenshots https://imgur.com/a/TMDknvN

    Wow. That’s awesome. Would you be OK if I took these pictures and added them to the plugin wiki on github?

    Yes, sure please feel free to use them.

    Also, If I can be of any assistance please don’t hesitate to ask.
