<p><strong>Does not require</strong> <a href="https://searchwp.com/?utm_source=WordPress&utm_medium=Plugin+Readme+Requirement+Link&utm_campaign=Live+Ajax+Search&utm_content=SearchWP" rel="nofollow ugc">SearchWP</a>, but will utilize it if available. <a href="https://searchwp.com/extensions/live-search/" rel="nofollow ugc">Full documentation</a> is available at searchwp.com.</p>
<p>SearchWP Live Ajax Search enables AJAX powered live search for your search forms. Designed to be a developer’s best friend, SearchWP Live Ajax Search aims to stay out of your way but at the same time allowing you to customize everything about it. It’s set up to work with any WordPress theme and uses a template loader to display results. The template based approach allows you to seamlessly customize your SearchWP Live Search implementation without messing with dozens of cluttered options.</p>
<h4>Works best with SearchWP (but SearchWP is not necessary)</h4>
<p>SearchWP Live Ajax Search <em>is best utilized</em> 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 <strong>it is not required</strong>. If SearchWP is installed and activated, SearchWP Live Ajax Search can be customized to use any of your search engines <em>per search form</em>.</p>
<h4>Customization</h4>
<p>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.</p>
<p><em>Everything</em> 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>.</p>
<h4>Widget support</h4>
<p>SearchWP Live Ajax Search ships with a Widget allowing you to insert live search forms wherever you’d like.</p>

<p>Relevanssi Live Ajax Search enables ajax live search for your search forms. It won’t swamp you with settings, and generally, Relevanssi Live Ajax Search works without any modifications necessary. If you want to customize it, you have complete control over how it works and what it does.</p>
<p>Relevanssi Live Ajax Search displays the search results using templates. You can easily override the default templates from your theme to make the results look the way you want them to look.</p>
<h4>Works best with Relevanssi</h4>
<p>Relevanssi Live Ajax Search only provides you with live search results. To get really good results, use <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/relevanssi/" rel="ugc">Relevanssi</a>, <a href="https://www.relevanssi.com/buy-premium/" rel="nofollow ugc">Relevanssi Premium</a> or <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/relevanssi-light/" rel="ugc">Relevanssi Light</a>. Relevanssi Live Ajax Search automatically uses Relevanssi to power the search results if Relevanssi is installed and active. However, you don’t need Relevanssi; Relevanssi Live Ajax Search also works with the default WP search.</p>
<h4>Changes from SearchWP Live Ajax Search</h4>
<p>Relevanssi Live Ajax Search is a fork of <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/searchwp-live-ajax-search/" rel="ugc">SearchWP Live Ajax Search</a>. I forked it from version 1.6.1 because it looked like SearchWP Live Ajax Search wasn’t getting updates anymore. I also wanted to improve the Relevanssi compatibility.</p>
<p>Relevanssi Live Ajax Search drops all SearchWP compatibility. You can use SearchWP Live Ajax Search, which has built-in SearchWP support.</p>
<p>The widget has also been removed. It was unnecessary and outdated.</p>
<p>Relevanssi Live Ajax Search can now take over the Gutenberg <code>core/search</code> search form.</p>
<h4>This plugin is on GitHub</h4>
