WPRAG Smart Search is a WordPress plugin designed to enhance site search functionality by introducing a block-based, local keyword search system. It provides a Gutenberg search block that delivers live results and automatically generates taxonomy filter facets, all operating directly on the site's own WordPress database without making any external calls or requiring user accounts.
The plugin constructs a local inverted index with weighted relevance scoring, allowing matches in higher-priority zones such as titles to have more influence on search results than matches in other content areas. Taxonomy facets are surfaced automatically based on the current set of results, helping users refine their searches efficiently. Until the index is built, the plugin uses a weighted WP_Query search, ensuring that search capabilities are available immediately upon activation.
WPRAG Smart Search includes inspector controls and supports full block styling, including customization of colors, spacing, and typography within the Gutenberg editor. The plugin is suitable for WordPress site owners seeking a privacy-focused, locally-run search solution that integrates seamlessly with modern block-based site editing.
