Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Kody Search
Post titles, Search Tags, and categories. Not the body text of articles, and not your site's regular Tags. If a word matters for finding a post, add it to that post's Search Tags panel.
Published posts and pages only, of the types ticked under "Content to search". Drafts, pending and scheduled posts, private posts, and password-protected posts are all left out. A scheduled post is added by itself the moment it goes live, and a published post that later becomes a draft, gets a password, or is trashed is removed from the index on save. This matters because the index is downloaded by the visitor's browser: everything in it is content any visitor could already reach on your site.
The index builds the first time you open the Kody Search screen, then updates on its own
editor, such as an import, a migration, or renaming a category, there is a Rebuild Index button that refreshes everything.
No. Kody Search covers posts and pages and has no WooCommerce dependency.
The settings screen offers posts and pages. Other post types can be added by a developer with the kody_search_post_types filter, and they are then indexed and searchable like any other content.
Yes. Matching happens in the visitor's browser, which is what makes results instant and keeps the load off your server. With JavaScript disabled the search box renders but does not return results. Your theme's own search form is unaffected and keeps working.
No. Kody Search adds its own box and its own optional results page, and leaves the built-in search, your theme's search template, and ?s= URLs exactly as they were.
No. There are no external requests of any kind, no analytics, no telemetry and no accounts. Everything runs on your own site, and the search index is stored in your own database.
Partly, and it does no language filtering of its own. On Polylang, a rebuild covers every language. On WPML, a rebuild covers only the language you are viewing the admin in, so use the Rebuild Index button once per language, or expect the other languages to drop out. Either way, results are not filtered by language: a visitor may see matches from every language you have indexed. If language-aware search matters to your site, a plugin built for multilingual search is the better fit.
