In the results shows only published posts. ## Screenshots [[ ## Installation 1. Install Ajax Search either via the WordPress.org plugin directory, or by uploading the files to your server 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress 3. That’s it. You’re ready to go! ## FAQ How can be customized the template for this ajax search? Define your custom CSS rules in your theme’s CSS file. How can I add post thumbnail or excerpt or any other information into the result list? You can do it if you are a developer, the result template is in /ajax/simple-search. php I do not recommend modifying the plugin . Why it does not exists post thumbnail / featured image in the result list? There exists lot of common issue like some posts have post thumbnail other posts don’t have so the layout will screw up. If you have an idea how to solve it easily I will add to this plugin. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/86cfd79717993191252dab487ee3f14e3f0021fdcb318d8e5309a0529adc9ece? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Does not work for me – nothing happens](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/does-not-work-for-me-nothing-happens/)󠁿 [ditler](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ditler/) Onwa-atö 3, 2016 Does not work for me – nothing happens, and since there is no settings page, it is not easy to find out why.
