  • A few quick updates. First, the big news: I have discovered why some users see duplicate search entries for every search. Gratifyingly, it’s not a bug in Search Meter… but I know how to tweak the plugin to work around the problem. Stay tuned for details — Search Meter 2 should be out in the next week or so.

    Is it possible modify sm_list_popular_searches() to return more than 5 search terms? I thought that perhaps chanching the LIMIT (line 74). Is that right?

    Yes. The next version of Search Meter will include this as an option in the template tag.

    I too would like to use it for wpmu

    Now that WPMU 1.0 has been released, it’s moved up a few places on my to-do list.

    I would love for it to retain all searches from -ever-, even if it just hid them away somewhere.

    I will reorganise the plugin to make it easier to do this. Probably this will be in the next version.

  • Bennett, glad to hear you’re still working on Search Meter. I’ll be waiting for Ver 2!

  • Hello,
    Just wondering if anyone could help. I did something stupid and started my blog using a numerical archive system, and now I'd like to change it so that the post title is part of the URL for SEO reasons. Is there any Wordpress plugins that anyone knows of that could switch it without sending Googlers to invalid pages? Maybe some sort of redirector to the correct page?

    Thanks.

  • Not really a good place to ask Reece, try the official WordPress support forums. If your blog is new, Google should reindex it soon enough.

  • Search Meter 2 is out now. The main new feature is that it tracks all recent searches as well as summaries. There are also many small tweaks and improvements. Let me know how you get on with it.

  • Just a small hack… Personally it interested me to not have the searches from both myself and other registered users included, which can be accomplished like this:

    Find

    function tguy_sm_save_search(&$posts) {

    Change:
    ————
    if (is_search()
    && !is_paged() // not the second or subsequent page of a previuosly-counted search
    && !is_admin() // not using the administration console
    && ($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] || $tguy_sm_allow_empty_referer) // proper referrer (otherwise could be search engine, cache…)
    ) {
    ————–

    To:
    ————–
    if (is_search()
    && !is_paged() // not the second or subsequent page of a previuosly-counted search
    && !is_admin() // not using the administration console
    && !is_user_logged_in() // not a logged in user
    && ($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] || $tguy_sm_allow_empty_referer) // proper referrer (otherwise could be search engine, cache…)
    ) {
    ————–

    I’d rather have it cut off at a user level of “author” or higher, which you can probably do by replacing

    && !is_user_logged_in() // not a logged in user

    with

    && !current_user_can(’publish_posts’) // user can not publish

    I haven’t noticed problems with either setup yet.
