Major update for “Easy DidYouMean and Autocomplete for WP Search” plugin.

Today we have pushed new update for “Easy DidYouMean and Autocomplete for WP Search” plugin – v.2.0.0.
It now has a new name too: “Live Search and Smart AutoComplete for WordPress“.

Here are some of important changes we have made:

  • We have completely removed jQuery UI library from the plugin’s source and replaced it with better and lighter one: Twitter Typeahead.
  • We have removed didyoumean shortcode from PHP side and brought this feature to frontend. So, now it doesn’t need any shortcode or configuration. It works out of the box.
  • The most important news: We have created new module which gives live suggestions and autocomplete based on Posts, Pages, Products names. (in earlier versions it provided suggestions data based on single popular keywords based on website content. Now alongside with old feature you can choose the new feature)
