Description
SearchWP Xpdf Integration is a WordPress plugin that extends your site search to PDF documents. It uses the Xpdf text extraction engine so the contents of PDFs become searchable alongside your regular WordPress content. It is an add-on for SearchWP, activated with a one-click install.
Key Features
- Full PDF Content Indexing – Your search can index everything inside a PDF rather than only its title and metadata.
- Xpdf Extraction Engine – PDF text is pulled out using the Xpdf text extraction engine so documents can be matched by their contents.
- One-Click Activation – The integration is switched on with a single click, without writing code.
- Metadata and Custom Fields – Beyond body text, PDF metadata and custom fields can be included in the search index.
- Weighting and Algorithm Settings – Advanced algorithm settings let you weight PDF attributes so more relevant ones rank higher.
- Choose What to Index – You can index all PDF content or narrow it down to specific parts.
- Exclude Posts and Pages – Individual posts or pages can be hidden from PDF search results to keep them focused.
- PDF Search Forms – PDF search forms can be placed on the site with a Gutenberg block or a search modal popup.
Who Is It For
This plugin suits site owners and developers who publish PDFs and want visitors to find them through WordPress search, such as digital bookstores, info product sellers, and online libraries. It is aimed at anyone whose default WordPress search only covers PDF titles and metadata.
