How to activate Enhanced Search?

[Dinsavar]

I purchased the Enhanced search plugin, but it doesn't work. What should I do to make it work?

 

[Paul B]

Install elasticsearch on the server, configure it, and start it.

You have install the Elastcsearch or equivalent service on your server for the XF enhanced search to function.

Elasticsearch cannot be installed on the server. It must be a VPS. This is not a stupid thing to do.

That's what my company says.

If you cannot install ES then enhanced search will not work.
ES 7 install, but basically the same for 8 and 9.

XF does have a limited return window (I think)

How can I tell if my website is running Centos?

Generic, copied reply.

WHM displays the server's cPanel & WHM version in the top right corner of the interface. You can alternately run the /usr/local/cpanel/cpanel -V command to view version

It is really server specific.
Your host should be able to give you this information.
