Words out of order in debug search

The Silicone Free Pump post does appear in the results.

What you’re seeing in the debugger is perfectly normal. Relevanssi stores individual words in the index, and the debugging page just presents them in the alphabetical order, because Relevanssi does not know the original order.

When doing a search, Relevanssi breaks up the search query and searches for individual words. When doing exact phrase matching, Relevanssi compares to the original post content, which has the original words.

If you want to find a specific phrase, you can put in quotes. If you search for "silicone free pump", you’ll find that post and only that post.

Also, it looks like your search results are shown in the alphabetical order. If you search using the Relevanssi admin search (Dashboard > Admin search), you can see the exact scores Relevanssi calculates for your posts. Does the Silicone Free Pump post get the best score? It should, especially if you’re using the exact match boost. However, if the results are shown in alphabetical order, a good score does not help.

I tried forcing relevancy score order, but that didn’t work. Something is heavily overriding the order of the results. You can see if adding this to theme functions.php helps:

add_filter( 'relevanssi_modify_wp_query', 'rlv_order' );
function rlv_order( $query ) {
    $query->set( 'orderby', array( 'relevance' => 'desc' ) );
    return $query;
}
