Hi, your plugin looks very promising to me.
I've looked through the site and the forum and would like to confirm something.
My customer needs a site where they can deliver PDFs to anonymous users, and more PDFs to users logged in as subscriber. Your plugin looks great for that, and it looks like it would be simple for them to maintain.

However, the other requirement would be that the text contained in the PDFs would be searchable, and would show up in the search results alongside results from "normal" WP pages.

From reading your documentation, it looks like this is NOT possible, even when plain text search is enabled. It looks like I would need a separate search functionality just for the downloads. Is that correct?
It would not be acceptable to my customer to have two separate searches showing different results.

If this is not possible with WP File Download, do you know if your product is compatible with other search plugins, like for example WP Fulltext search Pro?

Thanks for your time!

Yes, it's not integrated with WP Search and other Search plugins currently.
We will consider it in the future version.


Hope it helps!
Kind regards,
