Bing Custom Search for WordPress

What does this plugin do?

This plugin replaces your default WordPress search, with search results from Bing.

Are there any known issues with certain hosts?

WP Engine: turn off object caching (the setting can be found in the WP Engine dashboard).

Do I need to modify my theme or use a shortcode?

Nope. This plugin takes over the search functionality of your theme. You just have to activate and follow the installation instructions to set up an account at Microsoft.

I’ve enabled Bing Statistics but I’m not seeing any data coming through.

If you have a custom endpoint, use that in the plugin setting screen in place of the default endpoint.
