If you’re using MemberMouse to manage memberships on your site, having Relevanssi co-operate with MemberMouse is easy using the relevanssi_post_ok filter hook. Add the following code to your site and your protected content will not be displayed to users without access to the content:
My Relevanssi engine has the AND operator enabled, with a fallback to OR when the search finds no matches. I’d like the search to display first the AND results and later the OR results. For example, if I search for “wedding party”, I’d like the search to show first the entries matching both words and…

You can find the names of the fields from the Profile Builder > Manage…
In some cases, Relevanssi requires modifications to the search result template for the search results to work properly (in particular when using Relevanssi Premium to search user profiles and taxonomy terms). Adjusting the templates is really simple, usually just changing the_permalink() to echo relevanssi_get_permalink() is enough, but framework themes like Genesis make small changes like these more complicated.
