FAQ
-
Does this replace WordPress’s default search?
-
Yes. The plugin replaces standard WordPress search forms and also provides a shortcode, search widget, search trends widget, and Gutenberg blocks.
-
Can I display trending or latest searches?
-
Yes. Add the „Lumenare Search Trends“ widget or the „Lumenare Search Trends“ block to show analytics-backed trending or latest successful searches. Latest searches default to repeated successful queries so one-off private searches are not promoted publicly.
-
Can I add an Ask Site question form?
-
Yes. Add the
[lumenare_ask_site]shortcode or the „Lumenare Ask Site“ block (lumenare/ask-site). Both surfaces use the publicPOST /wp-json/lumenare-search/v1/askroute and return cited source bundles from your Lumenare index. The shortcode supportsplaceholderandbuttonattributes, and the block exposes matching controls. -
Does Ask Site require AI setup?
-
No for source-only answers. Ask Site can return cited source bundles when base readiness passes: the public UI is enabled, the Lumenare index exists, published indexed content is available, rate limiting is configured, and the
ask_siteprofile resolves.Generated answers require WordPress 7.0+, WordPress AI Client support, AI answers enabled in Lumenare settings, AI Client answer mode, and a connected text-generation provider through the WordPress Connectors stack. If generated-answer readiness fails, or if generated text cannot be grounded to returned source IDs, Ask Site falls back to source-only results.
-
Can agents use Ask Site through the Abilities API?
-
Yes, when the WordPress Abilities API is available. Lumenare registers the read-only
lumenare-search/ask-siteability. It acceptsquestion, optionalprofile, and optionalmax_sources, then returns the same stable grounded response shape as the REST endpoint. The ability is capability-gated toedit_postsby default and REST/MCP public exposure stays opt-in. -
Do I need to reindex after changing settings?
-
Usually no for ranking-only changes such as fuzzy matching, synonyms, or phrase boosts. Reindex after changing indexed post types, stop words, or other settings that affect stored index data.
-
Can I search custom post types?
-
Yes. Publicly queryable post types can be enabled from the plugin settings.
-
Does it work with caching plugins?
-
Yes. Live results use AJAX, while normal search result pages can still be cached by your site stack.
-
What happens on uninstall?
-
The plugin removes its custom data when uninstalled.

Änderungsprotokoll
2.1.04
- Added public Ask Site question forms through the
[lumenare_ask_site]shortcode andlumenare/ask-siteblock. - Added grounded Ask Site REST and Abilities API responses with cited source bundles, readiness gating, source-only fallback, and optional WordPress AI Client answers.
- Added Search Intelligence workflows for unanswered Ask Site questions, including draft-answer creation, review, dismissal, and existing-content lookup actions.
- Added zero-result opportunity classification and workflow actions so content gaps can be separated from imported, non-English, numeric, or bot-like query noise.
- Improved imported and analytics-backed suggestions so list-like terms are split or suppressed and live AJAX typeahead searches do not become future suggestions.
- Fixed taxonomy facet settings so deselecting all facets, including Categories, persists after saving.
- Preserved explicit empty taxonomy facet selections instead of falling back to the default Categories facet.
- Hid the Search Imports tab after Ajax Search Pro import and cleanup work leaves no actionable ASP tables, options, or active plugin.
2.1.02
