Search Analytics will keep history of the search terms used by your users and group them in a set of statistics including the number of posts resulted from that search.

== Description ==
Search Analytics will keep history of the search terms used by your users and group them in a set of statistics including the number of posts resulted from that search.

It can easily aid you in finding what your users are really searching for on your website and make sure you provide exactly what they need.

= Features =
* Record all the search queries made using the **standard WordPress search form**.
* Exclude searches made by **users with certain user roles**
* Exclude duplicate searches made **in certain conditions (GDPR compliant)**
* Choose which user roles are allowed to see the statistics
* Filter statistics by **time periods, with/without results, strings/substrings**
* View each term **individual statistics**
* **Export data** in the current view to CSV
* Easily **delete certain search terms** from history
* Easily **erase all history from the database** in case a reset is needed

== Installation ==
Search Analytics can be installed via the WordPress Automatic Plugin Install page in the admin panel.
It can also be downloaded from the WordPress Plugin Directory and installed manually.

After the installation and activation is complete you should visit the plugin's settings page ( Settings -> MWT: Search Analytics ) to make sure it is properly configured for your needs.

== Screenshots ==

1. Main statistics view with time filters
2. Export data to CSV
3. Single term statistics view
4. Single term statistics view with results grouped by date
5. Settings page

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= The search history on my website is not being saved =

Please make sure you use the standard WordPress search functionality. In V1.3 there will be some functions added to aid other methods into inserting data in the history tables.

= The history was not deleted when I deactivated the plugin =

Before uninstalling, you should go to the plugin's settings page and check the "Remove plugin tables on uninstall" setting. After doing that, deactivating the plugin should also remove all tables from the database.

= Is there any development roadmap for the plugin? =

Yes. You can visit the plugin's [Trello Board](https://trello.com/b/MvIWInjW). This should give you an overview on my plans regarding this plugin.

= Where can I make feature requests? =

For now, you can use the [Support Forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/search-analytics). I will be adding a feature request/voting system to my website soon so everything will be kept in there.
