SearchWP BetterDocs Integration

Documentation is only useful if people can find it. Standard WordPress search often treats help articles like any other post, so visitors scroll through loosely related results. This plugin brings BetterDocs content into SearchWP, where you decide how articles, FAQs, custom fields, tags and categories are indexed and ranked. You can turn it on with one click and no code.

Once active, you can build dedicated search engines for different sections of your knowledge base, promote key articles, and hide pages that do not belong in help results. Live Ajax search shows suggestions as people type, and search analytics show what visitors look for. It suits sites with large product documentation or a growing knowledge base, and it can also index custom post types and PDF content.

Features

• One-click BetterDocs setup: Turn on the BetterDocs integration with a single click and include your documentation content in WordPress search without writing any code.
• Dedicated documentation search engines: Create separate search engines for different sections of your knowledge base, so results stay focused on the topic a visitor is browsing.
• Wide content indexing: Index BetterDocs articles along with FAQs, custom fields, tags and categories, so search covers more than just post titles and body text.
• Live Ajax search: Visitors see suggestions and results update as they type, which makes it quicker to move through a large set of help articles.
• Result prioritization: Use simple ranking controls to promote important articles or keywords so the documentation you care most about appears near the top.
• Search analytics: Track what visitors search for and spot patterns, then use that data to improve your documentation where people struggle to find answers.
• Content exclusion: Hide non-essential posts or pages from documentation search so the results list stays clean and useful.
• Flexible search form placement: Add documentation search forms using Gutenberg blocks or popup modals, so the search box fits your layout wherever you need it.
