To Use:

This plugin by itself does not provide any features to your users. It’s simply a backend plugin that can be used to build other features.

An example plugin demonstrating how the Comment Indexer can be used is found here.

The Comment Indexer is designed to index comments from the time it is installed on your site.
The Comment Indexer can’t index comments that were published prior to being installed. e,g. comments published prior to it being installed won’t display in your Recent Global comments widget

3. Once installed check it is working by publishing a new comment and see if the comments shows when used with a plugin like Recent Global Comments Widget.

Make sure the comment is published on a site with privacy set to ‘Allow search engines to index this site.’
