WP Serverless Search

WP Serverless Search is a WordPress plugin that restores site-wide search functionality to static WordPress sites. Unlike most WordPress search plugins, it does not rely on PHP or third-party search providers such as Google or Algolia. Instead, WP Serverless Search is completely static, free to use, runs locally, and is extremely fast.

About WP Serverless Search

To best explain the features and benefits of WP Serverless Search, here are some frequently asked questions.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is WP Serverless Search a search plugin for WordPress sites?

    Yes!

  • Can I use it instead of the native WordPress search?

    Yes!

  • Can I use it on non-static WordPress sites?

    Yes, it works on both.

  • Why did you create this?

    The native WordPress site search is slow and inaccurate. We created it because we wanted to improve that experience and found a solution that worked for us.

    WP Serverless Search uses just a few lines of JavaScript to search static XML. It doesn’t consume any database queries or network resources during a search.

    It should be fine. So far, we’ve tested WP Serverless Search on sites with up to about 1,000 posts, and it was able to return search results in milliseconds.

    Yes! It uses Fuse.js to provide fuzzy search results for typos.

  • Does it support autocomplete?
