Allows visitors to search the site using their voice.

== Description ==

Allows visitors to search the site using their voice. Currently only supported by Chrome on both desktop and mobile. See [this technical reference](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Speech_API) for more details.

See [this blog post](https://spinpress.com/wordpress-web-speech-api/ "Enabling Voice Search in WordPress Using The Web Speech API") for further information about the plugin.

== Installation ==

= Manual Installation =

1. Upload the entire `/voice-search` directory to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
2. Activate Voice Search through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
3. Visit your website and start searching using your voice.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Why is there no microphone button beneath the search form? =

There could be many reasons for this:

* You’re not Google Chrome (check out the browser support [here](http://caniuse.com/#feat=web-speech))
* Your theme doesn’t use the `get_search_form()` function properly. The plugin relies on the default search form markup
* Your theme does some CSS things that prevents the microphone button from being displayed.

= Does this plugin still allow users to type or does it entirely replace typing with voice search? =

No, users are still able to type in the search box whatever they want. Voice search is just a nice addition.

= How does it integrate with other search-enhancing plugins such as Relevanssi? =

In my tests there weren’t any problems with other plugins like Relevanssi.
