Description
This plugin uses an abstraction of jQueryUI’s autocomplete widget that interacts with the unofficial/undocumented Google Suggest API. Props go to Haochi Chen.
It adds an AJAX call to the search form, returning matches for the current search query.
There is no change of template files necessary as this plugin hooks in the existing WordPress API to unfold its magic.
Installation
- Download WP Google Suggest
- Unzip the folder into the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
- Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

Hi Mike,
you have a valid point there. Let me see what I can do.

Hi there! You have a very useful plug-in there. It would be really great to modify the script to auto-submit the form when a term from the auto-complete results is selected.
Thank you very much!
I was wondering if the wp google suggest plugin could only suggest from my database instead of from the web as well.
Thanks
Mike
And hello again,
yes, check out WP Search Suggest, which does exactly that! 🙂
