What it does
Directory sites live or die by their search. When visitors type a query and the right listing does not appear, they leave. Standard directory search often skips details stored in custom fields, taxonomies and metadata. This plugin indexes all of those listing attributes, so information you have already entered about a business, location or service becomes searchable and can surface in results.
Once it is running, you decide how results are ranked. You can assign weight to any content element, promote specific listings with one click and let the search algorithm adjust relevance based on how people actually search. Live Ajax results appear as visitors type, and built-in analytics show what people are looking for. It works with WordPress multisite and FacetWP, and it supports filters.
Best for
- Business directories built on the MyListing theme
- Local listing sites with lots of custom field data
- Agencies running MyListing directories for clients
Features
Full listing attribute indexing

Questions about SearchWP MyListing Integration
Will search find information stored in my custom listing fields?
Yes. The plugin indexes all listing attributes, including custom fields, metadata and taxonomies. That means details such as amenities, categories or extra listing information can be matched when a visitor searches, instead of only the basic listing text.
Can I make certain listings appear higher in search results?
Yes. You can control listing rankings and promote specific results with one click. You can also assign weighted importance to individual content elements, so the fields you care about most have a stronger effect on which listings rank first.
Does it work alongside FacetWP or on a multisite network?
It is compatible with WordPress multisite and FacetWP, and it supports filters. This lets you combine SearchWP's relevance controls with faceted filtering on a MyListing directory, or run it across sites in a multisite network.
How can I tell what my visitors are searching for?
The plugin includes directory search analytics that show visitor search patterns. You can use that information to spot common queries, adjust your listing content and fine-tune your relevance settings so results line up better with what people want.
