About SearchAutocomplete

SearchAutocomplete implements the jQuery UI Autocomplete functionality on your Wordpress installation. It provides several basic options such as:

• jQuery ThemeRoller integration
• Generic field selection. Any valid CSS selector can be used to pick the search field
• Custom Post Type and Taxonomy support
• Minimum character count
• Hotlink resulting Post/Page titles directly to their respective items

If you're going to mark this plugin as broken please contact me to let me know what the problem is.

Installation

This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.

1. Download the plugin from the Wordpress repository
2. Upload search-autocomplete to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
3. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
4. {Optional} If you want to add aditional themes to the settings, create the theme with the jQuery UI ThemeRoller and upload the resulting "/css/" directory to the "/css/" of this plugins installed directory.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I just modify the existing theme files rather than upload new jQuery UI Themes?

Yes, but it's recommended that you create a copy of the theme that you are going to modify rather than directly editing it. Future releases of this plugin may overwrite your changes if they are made to default theme files.

Please contact the author for support. Thanks!
