Search Permalink

Search Permalink redirects search form queries to cruft-free permalink URIs.

For example, the search term “foo” was entered on the search <form>. A browser would usually GET the page using this URI:

http://example.com/?s=foo

Search Permalink would redirect this query to a better-looking address clearly indicating that a search was made, like this:

http://example.com/search/foo/

There is a small error in version 2.8.4 of WordPress. The error occurs at line 41.

require('../../wp-blog-header.php');

It should look like:

require('wp-blog-header.php');

Greetings and thanks for the plugin 😉
