A faceted search is one that allows you to drill down by various fields: price, size, colour, shipping location etc. It complements a free text search rather than replaces it.
Using this plugin, you can create a faceted search interface for your pages, posts, or any other custom post type. You can add “facets” for:
<ul>
<li>Taxonomies</li>
<li>Custom fields</li>
<li>Dates (day, week, month or year)</li>
<li>Author</li>
</ul>
These facets are widgets that can be easily changed in the admin interface.
You can have multiple search pages for different post types. If your WordPress installation uses multi-site, you can search across the different sites.

<h4>Works best with SearchWP (but SearchWP is not necessary)</h4>
SearchWP Live Ajax Search is best utilized in conjunction with <a href="https://searchwp.com/?utm_source=WordPress&utm_medium=Plugin+Readme+Best+Link&utm_campaign=Live+Ajax+Search&utm_content=SearchWP" rel="nofollow ugc">SearchWP</a>, but it is not required. If SearchWP is installed and activated, SearchWP Live Ajax Search can be customized to use any of your search engines per search form.
<h4>Customization</h4>
You can customize the implementation of SearchWP Live Ajax Search to a great degree, including any number of developer-defined configurations. The results are based on a template loader, allowing SearchWP Live Ajax Search to stay out of your way and letting you write the results template as you would any other WordPress theme file.
Everything is powered by adding a single HTML5 data attribute (<code>data-swplive="true"</code>) to the input field of your search form. This happens automagically out of the box for any search forms generated from <code>get_search_form()</code>.
<h4>Widget support</h4>
SearchWP Live Ajax Search ships with a Widget allowing you to insert live search forms wherever you’d like.
