POST INDEXER
POST INDEXER is a WordPress plugin that unlocks cross-site search and display for Multisite by indexing posts and pages from any site into a single network-wide index. You can exclude sites, schedule indexing, and select post types per site for precise control. Discover and share content faster across your network.
Description
POST INDEXER is a WordPress Multisite plugin that enables cross-site search and display by building a single, network-wide index of your content. Multisite can organize sites efficiently, but it typically can’t search or show posts across different sites as a unified library.
This plugin indexes posts and pages from any site in your network into one index, so other plugins can retrieve and display that content consistently. With configuration options like site exclusions and scheduled indexing, you can keep results up to date without reorganizing your existing structure.
Main Features
- Network-wide content index — Collects posts and pages from multiple Multisite sites into a single index for unified access.
- Cross-site search support — Helps enable searching content across the entire network rather than within a single site.
- Site exclusion control — Exclude selected sub sites so their content is not added to the network index.
- Scheduled indexing — Schedule indexing runs to keep the shared index refreshed over time.
- Manual indexing options — Index content on demand when you need changes reflected sooner.
- Indexing timeframes — Choose a timeframe for when posts are indexed to control what’s pulled into the index.
- Post type selection per site — Select which post types from each site should be indexed for more precise results.
- Index pages as well as posts — Include static pages alongside posts when building the network index.
Benefits
- Faster content discovery — Users can find relevant posts across the whole network instead of searching site-by-site.
- More useful network displays — Enables other Multisite-compatible plugins to present shared content consistently.
- Better UX — Reduces dead ends by making cross-site results available where visitors expect them.
- Reduced indexing noise — Site exclusions and post type filters keep the index focused on what matters.
- Smarter freshness control — Scheduling and timeframe options help keep the index aligned with your update cycles.
