<p>Bring a REAL search engine into your WordPress website in 5 minutes, for free!</p>
<p>Smart Search enhances the WordPress search engine by querying Microsoft BING and its Search API.<br />
The search query is performed in the context of your website url, just like you would type the following search query on BING:</p>
<pre><code>site:http://www.yourblog.com find this and that in New York
</code></pre>
<h4>Brief</h4>
<p>URLs from the BING result set are converted by Smart Search to WordPress post IDs, thus the display process is the same your theme implements for regular searches.<br />
Search results come from <strong>Microsoft BING</strong>. This means <strong>semantics and relevance</strong> on board!!</p>
<p>You can also choose to cache the search engine’s results for a defined period of time, which basically means that your site will load a little bit faster if the same search query is used.</p>
<p>In order to use it, you must have a valid <a href="https://datamarket.azure.com/account/keys" title="Create Windows Account key" rel="nofollow ugc">Windows Account key</a> and you will need to activate at least the <a href="https://datamarket.azure.com/dataset/8818F55E-2FE5-4CE3-A617-0B8BA8419F65" title="BING Search API | Web Results only plan" rel="nofollow ugc">free subscription here</a> or <a href="https://datamarket.azure.com/dataset/bing/search" title="Activate your Bing Search API plan" rel="nofollow ugc">here</a></p>
<p>Easy, simple and fast!<br />

Smart Search Engine

Smart Search replaces the native WordPress search engine by giving relevance to what matters. Results are displayed according to your current theme.

<p>The Clean My Archives plugin was developed because so many archives plugins were overly complicated.  I wanted something extremely simple to use that simply got the job done on my own <a href="http://justintadlock.com/archives" rel="nofollow ugc">site’s archives</a>.</p>
<p>Therefore, I created a simple <code>[clean-my-archives]</code> shortcode that you can place on any page (or any shortcode-ready area) and list your post archives by month and year.</p>
<p>This plugin also integrates with WordPress caching plugins.  So, long lists of archives can be cached for later use and loaded quickly.  If you have many years of blog posts, I highly recommend some sort of persistent caching or paginating your archives (see FAQ).</p>
<h3>Professional Support</h3>
<p>If you need professional plugin support from me, the plugin author, you can access the support forums at <a href="https://themehybrid.com/support" rel="nofollow ugc">Theme Hybrid</a>, which is a professional WordPress help/support site where I handle support for all my plugins and themes for a community of 75,000+ users (and growing).</p>
<h3>Plugin Development</h3>
<p>If you’re a theme author, plugin author, or just a code hobbyist, you can follow the development of this plugin on it’s <a href="https://github.com/justintadlock/clean-my-archives" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub repository</a>.</p>
<h3>Donations</h3>
<p>Yes, I do accept donations.  If you want to donate, you can do so from my <a href="https://themehybrid.com/donate" rel="nofollow ugc">donations page</a> or grab me something from my <a href="http://a.co/flUb0ns" rel="nofollow ugc">Amazon Wish List</a>.</p>
<p>I appreciate all donations, no matter the size.  Further development of this plugin is not contingent on donations, but they are always a nice incentive.</p>
