    I built the search form to also index PDFs and it works perfectly fine when I test it as a logged-in user. But as soon as I go to a incognito-window and re-test it, it does not find anything..
    What could be the reason?

    Hi @stark Unfortunately, WPFTS does not work with PODS custom fields "from the box", so custom code exists somewhere. I think your developer used another way to add data to the search index. We need to ask him or alternatively, I could check your code myself, it should not be too long. In this case please send me admin access to your resource using a private message. Thanks.

    Hi, @Amine The WPFTS Pro version you are using is very outdated. Please consider upgrading to 2.46.x which is the latest. It has a completely new indexing and searching algorithm and it should solve your issue.

    Hi @davide-merlitti It happens because you have problems with wp-cron tasks or DNS configuration. If you have your website hosted locally, often the domain name is just recorded in /etc/hosts file. This is normally okay for browser access (and this is why indexing is coming well but slow when your WP admin is open). But PHP can not read /etc/hosts by some reason and thus indexing procedure can not go internally. Please read this solution and try it. Please let me know if it helps or not. Thanks!

    Hi @Nick Yes, the algorithm thinks the number of words here is more important than the exact phrase... Ideally, if we could justify the relative weight for the phrase matches. Currently, it's too low for your case, but I think if we can double it, this could solve the issue. I think to put this parameter to settings in the near future. Thanks!
