Hi!
I can’t seem to find the directory you suggested. Perhaps the login does not have access to it? Here is a screenshot of what directories I see: http://i.imgur.com/87Uhqa3.png
The results page is coming from the theme, not the plugin. The plugin does not affect the default results page…
It’s because you need MyIsam SQL tables to work with fulltext, and you most likely have InnoDB. But unless you have like 20000 posts you won’t need fulltext indexing – there is no noticable difference. Please don’t change the database engine unless you are experienced with relational databases.
The slow is most likely caused by a conflict or an unknown error, without ftp access I’m not able to tell.
Hi!
Indeed it’s slow, something is most likely blocking the ajax request. Can you provide temporary ftp access as well? (you can edit the 1st post for that) I can’t tell what is causing the search to be this slow. It should react in 1-2 seconds based on your site speed.
I might only answer tomorrow, it’s 1AM here, and I’m leaving the office.
As your second question, you can’t make them clickable, it’s a bit complicated, but I will consider adding this feature to the future releases.
Hi!
You will not loose your custom settings after update, no worries. Currently there is only the documentation and the faqs available, but those are a bit outdated. The new version comes with a fresh documentation and I’m working on a knwoledgebase as well. It should be up in 10 days.
Hi!
Copy the wp-content/plugins/ajax-search-pro folder over to the main site’s plugin folder, and it should work.
Hi again!
The second issue was indeed a bug in the search code. The problem was, that the search filters the results by category after the actual database query. After retrieving 15 results the plugin filtered all of them, because they did not belong to the proper category, so no results were left. I fixed this by increasing the results count to 30 on the general opions panel, so you should see the proper results now.
The new search version (3.0) is coming out very soon (3-5 days), you will have access to it as well on codecanyon – this issue is completely fixed in 3.0 in a different way. (so after upgrading you don’t need to worry about this anymore)
Thank you for noticing me about this, and I hope you like the plugin despite this small issue.
Hi!
In order to use fulltext search, you need to change the wp_posts table from InnoDB engine to MyIsam. But if you have less then 20 000 posts I would not recommend doing that, as you won’t see any difference in search speed or results. Fulltext search is more for advanced developers, I hihgly recommend not changing anything in the databse unless you are experienced with MySQL.
You can read a quick guide about innodb to myIsam conversion here: https://rtcamp.com/tutorials/mysql/innodb-to-myisam/
But once again, unless you are experienced with mySQL, I don’t recommend changin the engine.As for the second isse, I will do a debugging soon to see why is that happening. The search might not work sometimes because of that.
Thank you for the detailed description and the proper login details, it makes my work a lot faster.
Hi!
I believe I have found the issue. The drag-drop list was too big and the browser could not handle it. I limited the terms count except for product categories. It should work now properly.
You can also leave temporary administrator and ftp access by editing the first post in this thread. I will then take a look at the backend, and see if I can find anything.
Of course it can be resolved, once we find what is causing the issue.
Please try to deactivate all the plugins, except the Ajax Search Pro and see if it works then. If it works with all the other plugins deactivated, then it’s something else conflicting.
You can also try to switch the theme temporary to the default, and see if it’s working then.
Once we find the plugin conflict I will able to reproduce it on my test environment and help with the solution.
Hi!
It’s some kind of javascript conflict, most likely caused by another plugin or extension.
Do you have any administrator interface enhancements installed? If so, then you should try to disable them temporary and see if the category drag-drop works then.
No problem at all 🙂
Oh, thank you for the rating, I just noticed it!
The next update should be out in a month or so. It’s going to be a smaller update with mostly bug fixes and small requests like yours. Right now I’m finishing two other plugin updates, once I’m finished, then Related Posts Pro is next.
