FAQ

Is this plugin compatible with all themes?

No, this plugin is not compatible with all themes. If your theme already includes a built-in mechanism for highlighting search keywords, this plugin may not override those styles.

It is compatible with themes that use the following standard WordPress functions to display search results:

  • the_title()
  • get_the_title()
  • the_excerpt()
  • the_content()

If your theme uses custom functions to output search content, this plugin may not work as expected.

Can I change the highlight color?

Two color options are available: yellow and light green. You can select the highlight color from the plugin’s settings page.

Can I disable the keyword highlighting?

Yes, there’s an option to enable or disable the feature from the settings page.
