SearchWP Polylang Integration makes WordPress search respect the active Polylang language, returning accurate, language-specific results. As a WordPress plugin, the main benefit is faster, relevant results for multilingual sites, improving user experience.

Description
SearchWP Polylang Integration is a WordPress plugin built to work with Polylang-powered multilingual sites and the SearchWP search engine. It ensures your on-site search returns results that match the visitor’s currently active Polylang language.
Instead of mixing content from different languages, this integration limits search output to the language segmentation defined in Polylang for posts, pages, categories, and post tags. The result is more relevant search behavior and a smoother experience in multilingual WordPress workflows using themes and Elementor layouts.
