SearchWP Greek Keyword Stemmer

SearchWP Greek Keyword Stemmer is a WordPress plugin that adds Greek language stemming support to SearchWP. While SearchWP applies English stemming by default when that option is enabled, this extension switches it to Greek stemming instead. It reduces Greek words to their root forms during indexing, so search can match grammatical variations of the same word.

Key Features

• Greek keyword stemming – Enables Greek stemming so that different grammatical variations of a Greek word are reduced to a common root and can match each other in search.
• Root form indexing – During indexing, Greek words are reduced to their root forms, which is what allows related word variations to be found together.
• Matches word variations – Because words are stemmed, a search can return results containing different grammatical forms of the same Greek word.
• Replaces default English stemming – SearchWP normally applies English stemming when the stemming option is turned on; this extension makes Greek stemming apply instead.
• Deprecated since SearchWP 3.1 – The extension is no longer needed on newer SearchWP versions because Greek stemming has been folded into SearchWP itself.

Who Is It For

This plugin is for WordPress site owners running SearchWP who publish Greek-language content and want search results to account for Greek word variations. It is relevant mainly to sites on SearchWP versions older than 3.1, since the functionality is now included in SearchWP itself.
