Install
This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.
Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:
wp plugin install https://github.com/uldtot/wp-search-feed-injection/archive/refs/heads/main.zipUpdates itself. It ships its own updater (Plugin Update Checker), so new versions appear under Dashboard → Updates.
WP Search Feed Injection
A lightweight WordPress plugin that injects external XML feeds as custom post types and makes them searchable within WordPress.
✨ Features
- Register external feed items as Custom Post Types (wsfifeeditem)
- Automatically include feed items in WordPress search results
- External links open in a new tab directly from search results
- Admin interface to manually edit the external URL of each feed item
- External URLs are stored as custom post meta
- Clean integration with WordPress hooks and filters
- Easy to extend and customize
🔧 How It Works
1. The plugin registers a custom post type called Feed Items.
2. Each feed item can store an externalurl that points to the original source.
3. When users perform a search, feed items are included in the results.
4. If a feed item has an external URL, the search result will link directly to it and open in a new tab.
📥 Importing Feed Items
This plugin is designed to work together with WP All Import.
Rather than building yet another XML feed importer, this plugin reuses a robust and proven solution. Use WP All Import to map your feed data into the wsfifeeditem post type and store the external link as post meta us
