IndexTank hosted, realtime search (FTW!)

== Description == 

IndexTank brings nice, instant search to your blog, with automatic suggestions of query terms, and super-fast ajax-style search.

= Features = 

* InstantSearch: See results as you type!
* AutoComplete.
* Match highlighting. Displays just the *relevant* parts of the matched posts.
* Phrase matching. You can use *'quotes'* to get exact matches.
* Works with *ALL* WordPress templates
* Sorting. Order results by **relevance**, **newest** or **comments**
* Pagination
* No need to write PHP code

== Installation ==

1. Upload `indextank/` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
1. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
1. Go to the 'Tools' -> 'Indextank Searching' menu in WordPress
1. If you have an account, enter your data and hit 'Save'. If not, hit the **'Get one'** button.
1. Hit the **'Index All posts'** button

You are all set, now just query something on your blog sidebar. If the results don't look nice with your template:

1. Go to the 'Tools' -> 'Indextank Searching' menu in WordPress
1. Hit the **'Magic'** button, on the 'Look and Feel' section

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

* **Q**: Do I need to get an account on indextank.com to use this plugin?
  * **A**: Not really. The plugin can get an account for you, from your dashboard.

* **Q**: Is it FREE?
  * **A**: Yes, until you get 100,000 posts it is. If you ever go over that limit (a lot of blogging!) you may have to upgrade.

* **Q**: Are there any knows issues with other plugins?
  * **A**: Not really. This plugin calls `apply_filters('the_content', $post->post_content)`, so if there's a buggy filter you may see errors while indexing. If that happens, please let us know at **support (at) indextank (dot) com**

== Upgrade Notice ==

You'll get a message on your dashboard, in case you need to upgrade your index. In that case, you need to:

* Go to the 'Tools' -> 'Indextank Searching' menu on your dashboard
* Click the 'Reset Index!' button
* Your index will show as 'STARTING' .. wait a few seconds and go again to the 'Tools' -> 'Indextank Searching' menu on your dashboard. **DON'T HIT THE RELOAD BUTTION!**
* Once your index shows as 'RUNNING', hit the 'Index All posts!' button.
* Great, you're upgraded :)
