Extend Search Block


I really needed a way to create a search block for a knowledge base custom post type using the full site editor. The thing is, the default search didn't have a way to force it to only use the knowledge base, and instead searched everything. I didn't want that.



This plugin allowed me to configure the search bar to only search for things in the knowledge base, which was exactly what I needed.



I have a minor suggestion, but it wasn't a big deal for me - it would be nice if the block used core's button block instead of the button it uses. I think this would align better with the theme's design, and probably give more options on what the search button looks like. A minor suggestion though, since the customization options were flexible enough that I was able to make the button match my theme without much trouble.



Great job, and thank you so much!


Exactly what I needed!

WP Modification History enables a metabox that shows modficiation history by date/time, user, and the values that were modified. The modified values are shown in a diff format so that you can easily see what lines and characters were modified, deleted, added, etc.
Within the settings page, you are able to toggle off/on meta values in the event you don’t want certain things to be tracked when hitting the update button on that post type.
Possible future features:
<ul>
<li>Additional settings and display options (AJAX pagination, limit of results per page/metabox, etc.)</li>
<li>Comments and remarks on a particular revision</li>
<li>Email notifications when specific changesets are made</li>
<li>Stats</li>
</ul>
