Search (I guess) not working
-
Judging from some posts I have seen (correct me if I am wrong), there is no built in way of having bbPress (2.0) made searchable using the standard WordPress search box and having both sets of results combined into one set, and if there is, it is buggy at best. Services such as Google Custom Search have been suggested as alternatives, but would that mean that all posts are searchable using spiders? I mean, would using a service such as Freefind give me practically accurate results, depending on when each crawl was made? Or is there a way to have relatively realtime results just using the standard WordPress search box? I'd much rather have native (even plugin based) search on my site instead of a spider based search engine, but beggars can't be choosers and all.
