<p>McAvoy is a simple WordPress that logs site searches (and information about the people performing them) so you can get a better sense of what your audience is looking for. Is your navigation unclear? Are people regularly getting lost in your infinitely-scrolling homepage when they’re just trying to find the latest news on a topic? McAvoy is there, collecting the facts you need to make informed decisions!</p>
<p>Best of all, McAvoy is meant to grow with you, sending search query data anywhere you need to in order to get the most meaningful results.</p>
<p><strong>Notice:</strong> In the interest of writing the best software possible, McAvoy requires a <em>minimum</em> of PHP 5.3. For more information, please see the Frequently Asked Questions.</p>

Boost conversion, reduce support costs, and gain new customer intelligence by adding Yext Answers site search to your WordPress-powered website. The Yext Answers Site Search plugin allows you to seamlessly integrate your Yext Answers search bar and search results page to your existing WordPress pages. If you don’t currently work with Yext but would like to add the world’s best site search to your WordPress site, get started today at <a href="https://www.yext.com/try/wordpress/" rel="nofollow ugc">https://www.yext.com/try/wordpress/</a>.</p>
<p>With the Yext AI Search plugin, you can now:</p>
<ul>
<li>Easily index WordPress data to Yext with pre-built connectors, and use that data to power your Answers experience</li>
<li>Schedule automatic data syncs to keep your search results up to date</li>
<li>Live edit the styling of your search bar, no coding background required!</li>
<li>Drag and drop your Answers experience onto any page of your WordPress site with Gutenberg blocks</li>
<li>Replace all instances of native WordPress search with the click of a button</li>
</ul>
<p>To use this plugin you must have a Yext account. The Yext Answers Site Search plugin is search-as-a-service; upon download, you will be asked to provide your Answers API key and a few other pieces of information in order for the plugin to work. We’ll be calling the Answers Javascript SDK (and its CSS and templates) in order to render the search bar and Javascript from our Pages platform to load the search results page.<br />

<h3>WHY DO I NEED ANSWERS?</h3>
<h3>Answer Customers’ Questions.</h3>
<p>Deliver a cutting-edge search experience on your website that understands natural language questions, provides direct answers (not blue links), and paves the path from search to conversion.</p>
<p>Use the Yext Answers Site Search plugin to power a variety of onsite search experiences — from job finders to store locators, or even full site search — on your WordPress site.</p>
<h3>Operate Efficiently.</h3>
<p>The Yext Answers Site Search plugin is an out-of-the-box solution that minimizes the need for IT to manage and optimize an effective search experience. Once you’ve downloaded the plugin, all you need to do is use the provided shortcodes for the Answers search bar and search results page.</p>
<h3>Retain Traffic and Boost Conversion.</h3>
<p>When your website answers your customers’ questions, they’re more likely to stay on your site, instead of bouncing to a search engine or a competitor.</p>
<p>And, customizable CTAs pave the path from search to conversion: early adopters have seen Yext Answers driving a 36% higher website conversion rate than legacy keyword-based search providers.</p>
<h3>Reduce Support Costs.</h3>
<p>When your website can answer more customers’ questions, fewer of them will turn to your call center or live chat — saving you valuable resources.</p>
<h3>Gain New Customer Insights.</h3>
<p>If you could see every question a customer asked on your website, would you adjust your content to better suit their needs? With insights from Yext Answers, you can learn what matters to your customers and give them more of what they’re looking for.</p>
