Getting started 🐣

It is recommended that you install the plugin from the Wordpress Plugin Management screen of your Wordpress install (Plugins -> Add New);

Once the plugin is installed and enabled, you will see a new Site Search entry in the admin menu. Go to this entry to configure the Site Search plugins :

1. Enter your Swiftype API key on the first screen.
2. Name your search engine and optionally choose a language.
3. Build your search index by clicking the "Synchronize" button.

Note :

• Using this plugin assumes that you have already created a Site Search account. If you do not have one, signup for a free 14 day trial.
• If you already have an account, you will need your API Key in order to configure the plugin. You can find it in on top of the Site Search Account Settings screen on the Site Search site.

Usage

For additional information on how to use and extend the plugin, please visit the plugin notes page.
