 * Hi,
 * Your plugin looks like a fantastic integration for Meilisearch. We are currently
   setting up a large-scale website with over 1 million posts on a powerful server,
   and we want to use Meilisearch for our search functionality.
 * For maximum performance, we are using the **Meta Box** plugin with its **Custom
   Database Tables** extension. This means our custom fields are stored in dedicated,
   custom SQL tables rather than the default `wp_postmeta` table.
 * **Does CelerSearch support indexing custom fields stored in Meta Box custom tables?**
   If not, is there a specific hook or filter we can use to manually inject these
   custom table fields into the Meilisearch index during synchronization?
 * We really want to leverage Meilisearch at this scale and would love to use your
   plugin if it supports this setup. Looking forward to your response.
 * Kind regards,
   Serdar

 * Hey [@kocakserdar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kocakserdar/) ,
   Metabox
   integration is implemented as of version 1.7.0.
 * Feel free to try it and let us know!

 * Thank you so much Darko, much appreciated! I’m now importing the millions of 
   posts to the new WordPress site. After that, I’ll install CelerSearch, try it
   and give you a five-star review through wp.org.

 * Hi Darko,
   I finished importing posts to the site and created a test Meilisearch
   instance for testing the CelerSearch plugin. Looks like it works smoothly. The
   thing is that, it returns error if I create more than 400-500K indexes. I think
   this happens because of Cloudflare’s 100-second limit. Is it possible to use 
   WP-CLI to create indexes or configure cron to make it working in the background?

 * Once again thank you so much for your brilliant plugin and support. Much appreciated!

 * Hey [@kocakserdar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kocakserdar/) ,
 * Thanks for the information, yes – this could happen due to different factors.
   WP CLI would be much bettter option given your index size.
 * **WP CLI Interface**
 * **Find the configured index ID/slug**
 *     ```wp-block-code
       wp celersearch index list
       ```
   
 * **Check local and remote document counts**
 *     ```wp-block-code
       wp celersearch index info <index-slug>
       ```
   
 * **Preview counts without indexing**
 *     ```wp-block-code
       wp celersearch reindex <index-slug> --dry-run
       ```
   
 * **Index/update the data**
 *     ```wp-block-code
       wp celersearch reindex <index-slug>
       ```
   
 * **Verify the result**
 *     ```wp-block-code
       wp celersearch index info <index-slug>
       ```
   
 * **Default mode**
 * The default mode is refresh. It keeps search available, upserts current WordPress
   records, and removes stale remote documents afterward.
 * **To rebuild everything from scratch:**
 *     ```wp-block-code
       wp celersearch reindex --mode=full
       ```
   
 * A full rebuild deletes and recreates the remote index, so search is temporarily
   unavailable. Use it when the primary key changes or when you explicitly need 
   a clean rebuild. The older –clear option is only a deprecated alias for –mode
   =full.
 * Let me know if that helps.
 * Best Regards,
   Darko
