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 Post Indexer can be used is found here.

1. Install the Post Indexer

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

2. Visit Plugins in your network admin dashboard and Network Activate the Post Indexer plugin there.

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

Make sure the post is published on a site with privacy set to ‘Allow search engines to index this site.’
Check Global tables installed correctly if have any issues.

There are a few config options at the top of post-indexer.php. Unless you’re in a very solid dedicated environment we recommend leaving them as is.

Check to Make Sure The Tables Installed Correctly:
