 * Hello
 * I am trying to find a search plugin but really have had no luck. What I want 
   is very simple, I want to be able to search by several categories so the user
   can narrow the search down. For example I want to find a venue but it needs to
   be small, for a wedding and in st albans. So the search need to filter me a result
   that appears in all three of those categories but only these three.
 * I have tried nearly all the plugin’s I can find, relevansi, relevant search, 
   simple search, advance search, multicategory, custom wp search, magic wordpress
   filter,search by category, search everything, super search and some others that
   I cant remember.
 * wp custom search is closest but it is epicly slow and will only return 10 results,
   anything after that is an error. next best is multicategory but it works backwards
   ie instead of narrowing the results to find only categories that use all three
   option is uses everything that appears in each category.
 * My webpage is [http://www.venueshire.co.uk](http://www.venueshire.co.uk) and 
   I have left the search widgets up so you can get an idea of what I am trying 
   to do. the top search is wp custom and work the best, st albans is the only town
   covered if your looking to test the search
 * Can anyone tell me of a search plugin that works? or does any one know of a developer
   who can build me one? or can anyone fix multicategory so that it is a useful 
   tool working correctly
 * Many thanks
 * Adam
