I would like to have feature XYZ. What should I do?

How do I install it in certain page using it as a widget?
gee Search Plus plugin works behind the scenes by optimizing and changing the default WordPress search query. If you would like to have a search box on a sidebar or as a widget, just use the WordPress default search widget and gee Search plus will do the hard work!
What do I need to know if I’m using Stella multi-language plugin?
If you’d like to remove the correct language stopwords from your search query when using the Stella plugin, then go to gee Search Plus settings and change the Remove Stopwords by language to the option Use stopwords files according to Stella languages.
In order get this working properly you need to make sure there is a stopwords file per each configured language on your site. Check at the /wp-content/plugins/gsearch-plus/stop directory for the files. You’ll find there are already several files pre-loaded with the gee Search Plus plugin (English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Czech, German, Finnish, French, Polish, Dutch and more). You may edit those files to include/remove stopwords, or add new files. When adding new stopwords files name them as stopwords-[LANGUAGE].php, where LANGUAGE is a two letter code representing the Stella language (en -> English, de -> German, and so on).
