Enabling Smart search in Joomla

Now I'm getting on with my website thought it best to add some sort of search. Just as I'm adding a module I see "Smart Search" and "Search". Which one?

So, did a little search on google and found this article from Joomla.org. It seems that "Smart Search" is a newer and fancier "Search" which pretty much replaces the "Search". Even has autocomplete (who needs google now).

So I thought I'd quickly mention the steps to putting this search box onto the Joomla website:

1. Enable the "Content - Smart Search" plugin in "Plug-in Manager"
1. by changing the red circle to a green circle.
2. Index your website
1. click on "Components" > "Smart Search"
2. then click on the large icon labelled "Index" at the top
3. this might take a while depending on the size of your website
3. Make a "Smart Search" Module with a position on your website
1. Go to Module Manager
2. New module
3. Type = Smart Search
4. select a position
5. Save
4. Cheers
