Plugin sunset
TL;DR: This plugin is no longer supported. Please use our API client guide instead https://www.algolia.com/doc/integration/wordpress/getting-started/quick-start/.
After discussing with a lot of you, we've realized that our WordPress plugin, while being easy to implement and use, did not provide the room for customization necessary to build satisfying, advanced search and discovery experiences on Wordpress websites.
That's why we have decided to double down on our new PHP API client instead. We created comprehensive documentation to guide you to index your Wordpress content, optimize your relevance, and build state-of-the art front end experiences relying on the API client.
We believe this approach is the most robust, satisfying and future-proof way to build great experiences for Wordpress websites. We will therefore stop supporting our WordPress plugin following this timeline:
-
From 02/05/19: we won't add any new feature or fix any new functional bug in our Wordpress plugin.
- From 31/12/19: we won't provide any security fix to our Wordpress plugin
Please note that if you already have the plugin set up and are satisfied with your current integration, you can keep using the plugin forever, knowing that it won't be supported according to the timeline above. It will still work as is, in its current state, on your website.
Description
The plugin provides relevant search results in milliseconds, ensuring that your users can find your best posts at the speed of thought. It also comes with native typo-tolerance and is language-agnostic, so that every WordPress user, no matter where they are, can benefit from it.
About pricing
This plugin relies on the Algolia service which requires you to create an account here. Algolia offers its Search as a Service provider on a incremental payment program, including a free Community Plan which includes 10,000 records & 50,000 operations per month. Beyond that, plans start at $29/month.
Note that there isn’t a direct correlation between the number of posts in WordPress and the number of records in Algolia. Also note that we only offer support starting from the PRO plan. On average, you can expect to have about 10 times more records than you have posts, though this is not a golden rule and you could end up with more records.
Getting started guide
Once you have installed the plugin, you can follow the step by step guide provided here: https://community.algolia.com/wordpress/configuration.html
Relevance
Algolia enhances your search functionality with a completely customizable search experience which can be seamlessly integrated into your Wordpress theme. It lets you create a find-as-you-type experience or an auto-complete dropdown menu, which provides relevant results from the first keystroke. Our extension also automatically synchronizes data (posts, taxonomies etc.) in real-time, making sure that any updates to your site are available as soon as they are made.
Speed
Algolia returns results in under 35ms on an average – irrespective of whether you have 100s or 1000s of posts. Our state-of-the-art infrastructure and distributed search network ensures that your readers benefit from this, no matter where they are.
Accessibility
Search by Algolia gives you the ability to make all forms of data – blog posts, categories, users etc. – searchable from a single search bar. Algolia also gives you the ability to completely customize your search results based on criteria that makes sense for your business, such as popularity, date, relevance etc.
Built by developers for developers
Search by Algolia is also completely configurable and fully extensible by means of WordPress filters and hooks, letting you build a custom search experience or theme based on Algolia.

In the search field type “Algolia” and click Search Plugins. Once you’ve found our search plugin you can view details about it such as the point release, rating and description. Most importantly of course, you can install it by simply clicking “Install Now”.
