 * It would be very nice to have a shortcode that displayed a live results search
   box.
 * In the meantime, for anyone interested, I created a live search widget: [https://gist.github.com/scottrpaterson/52460f3bb00c065cc38acdfcae785ea2](https://gist.github.com/scottrpaterson/52460f3bb00c065cc38acdfcae785ea2)

 * Hey [@scottpaterson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scottpaterson/),
 * This particular feature is on the roadmap and will be available soon. I’m looking
   to create helper shortcodes for both live search and breadcrumbs, similar to 
   the PHP output functions that already exist.
 * In essence, the shortcodes will be wrappers for the existing PHP functions.
 * If all goes well, the shortcodes should be available at the beginning of next
   week.
 * Cheers,
    Mihai

 * Hey [@scottpaterson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scottpaterson/),
 * Just wanted to let you know version 1.3.4 is out and it contains 2 new shortcodes:[
   kbe_breadcrumbs] and [kbe_live_search].
 * Please try them out and let me know how they work.
 * Cheers,
    Mihai
