Help visitors find what they mean, even when they type it differently.

Someone searches for اداپتور, but your product is called آداپتور. Another visitor types نرم افزار while your article uses نرم‌افزار. Yaftino helps these searches connect with your content, using the search form your site already has.

Use it for a blog, a WooCommerce shop, or a site with both. Yaftino improves matching and gives relevant titles priority, while keeping your theme’s search layout and the content itself unchanged. Persian and English search are supported; Arabic matching can be enabled when you need it.

Different spellings, useful results

Match Persian and Arabic forms of ی/ي and ک/ك, and Persian, Arabic and English digits.
In ordinary Persian search, آ and ا match automatically.
Handle supported space and half-space variants without adding a synonym for every spelling.
Keep quantities distinct: ۵۰وات matches 50 W, not 500 W; 5 cm is different from 5 mm.

Make search fit your content

Add your own synonyms for alternate names, brands or equivalent phrases: up to 500 groups, with 2–10 phrases each.
Choose language-specific groups or share a group across supported languages.
Give title matches priority while respecting an explicitly selected sort order.
Optionally improve search in the dashboard Posts and Products lists, preserving product ID and SKU lookup.
Optionally let shoppers find products with a complete SKU, including a variation SKU that leads to its parent product.

Help after a search finds nothing

Persian keyboard correction can try the same keys in the Persian layout after an empty search. You can also turn on close matches for some typing mistakes, last-word completion, model-code beginnings, or Persian singular/plural matching. Each option has its own safeguards; numbers, units and other search filters stay protected. These features do not promise a match for every typo.

With the matching options enabled, lamp pa can find lamp park, and 7823 can find a title containing model 7823B. Your own synonyms can connect names such as LED and ال‌ای‌دی.

See what visitors are looking for

Optional local statistics show search phrases, how often they were searched, and searches with or without results. Results-page searches and supported live-search requests have separate reports. Filter the reports and delete selected records or clear them all whenever you need to. You can also download the filtered report as a CSV file for a spreadsheet, including results beyond the current page. For very large reports, narrow the dates or phrase before downloading.

Use the built-in Test search page to try phrases and see how Yaftino matched them before testing your theme’s form.

Your site, your search form

Yaftino is free and runs search locally, without an external search account or subscription. It follows the content types, language, permissions and filters of supported searches. It does not add a new search bar or replace your theme’s result design.

Start with the features you need. Arabic matching, dashboard matching, statistics, Persian plurals, close matches and word/model-prefix completion are off on a new installation.

Privacy

Yaftino runs search locally. Optional statistics store search phrases (which may contain personal information), dates and aggregate counts in your site’s database for up to 90 days when scheduled cleanup runs; administrators can delete them. No IP addresses, user IDs or cookies are stored, and search statistics are not sent externally. Feedback goes to [email protected] only when an administrator submits the Feedback form or chooses a reason in the deactivation dialog. The form sends the reason, message, plugin version and optional reply address; the dialog sends only the reason and version. Choosing not to answer sends nothing. Mail providers may keep logs; the recipient mailbox is subject to Google Privacy Policy and Google Terms. Uninstall sends no feedback. Disclose statistics in your site’s privacy policy before enabling them.
