Doofinder can be installed in any website with very little configuration (feed your search engine with data and put a bit of javascript code in your page).
This extension allows you to easily populate the data Doofinder needs to be able to search your database and to insert the Doofinder layer script into your WordPress site.

NOTICE: Doofinder for WordPress has built-in support for <a href="https://wpml.org/es/" rel="nofollow ugc">WPML</a> and <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/polylang/" rel="ugc">PolyLang</a> multi-language plugins.

Authentication
<ul>
<li>API Key: This is the secret token you use to index contents (in ML environments you can share the same key). Your API key can be found in the Doofinder Control Panel. Click on your profile name (in the header) and then on API Keys. Make sure you’re using a Management API key and not a Search API key.</li>
<li>Search Engine HashID: Id of the search engine that will index your contents. Can be found in the Doofinder Control Panel. Click on Search Engines in the header. Hash ID will be visible next to the name of your Search Engine. Remember to use different search engines for different languages if you’re in a ML environment.</li>
</ul>
Index Settings
<ul>
<li>Post Types: Choose which contents you want to index.</li>
</ul>
Search Settings
<ul>
<li>JS Layer: Enable the Doofinder JavaScript layer – when typing into a search field a window will pop up containing the list of results generated by Doofinder. This requires correct layer code pasted in the Layer Javascript Code field.</li>
<li>JS Layer Script: Here you can paste the Layer Javascript Code that can be found in the Doofinder Control Panel. It is required for the Javascript Layer to work.</li>
<li>Internal Search: Internal search overrides the default WordPress search that happens when users enter their search term and press Enter (and the website goes to the search results page).</li>
</ul>
IMPORTANT: Unless you know what you’re doing, it’s recommended to index contents first and, after the indexing process is finished, enable this option. If you switch the order, your site may return no results until something is indexed.
Index Posts
<h3></h3>
This section allows you to reindex all your contents. Just press the button and wait until it finishes. You will have to do this for each language if you’re in a ML environment.
IMPORTANT: Unless you know what you’re doing, it’s recommended to disable internal search when reindexing contents and, after the indexing process is finished, re-enable it. If you switch the order, your site may return no results until something is indexed.
IMPORTANT: Don’t leave the Index Posts screen until the process finished or your data won’t be fully indexed.

This plugin integrates the Doofinder search service with your WordPress site.

<h3>WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING</h3>
“Motive always came recommended by the different communities we enquired through. We trialed a few other providers before switching, however they were under-featured, clunky and over-priced. When we trialed Motive the on-boarding was the smoothest I’d ever seen and we were able to get a workable search implementation almost instantly – it just worked and most importantly our customers loved it.” JH – United Kingdom on Trustpilot
“I totally recommend this smart search engine solution to anyone running an online store. It’s reliable, fast, super easy to use, and cheaper than the other options out there. Plus, their customer support team is awesome. Really professional and helpful. That makes all the difference!” – Global Neoprene – France on Trustpilot
“The integration was surprisingly quick and easy, working seamlessly with WooCommerce. What really impressed us was how customizable the search tool is – it blended in so well with our website’s design that it felt like a built-in feature, keeping everything looking consistent without sacrificing any functionality. Our experience with Motive eCommerce Search and the team behind it has been incredibly positive, directly improving navigation and customer satisfaction in our stores.” – Victor – Spain on Trustpilot
