We’re excited to announce the release of Yuto version 0.1.1, and it comes packed with powerful new features that make integrating lightning-fast Meilisearch into your WordPress site easier than ever.

Whether you’re using the Classic Editor, Elementor, or any other site builder, Yuto now fits seamlessly into your workflow.

✨ What’s New in 0.1.1

You can now render the Yuto Autocomplete search anywhere on your site using the [yuto_autocomplete] shortcode. It’s perfect for sites that don’t use the Site Editor or prefer working in the Classic Editor, widgets, or page builders.

Example Usage:

[yuto_autocomplete]

With Custom Options:

[yuto_autocomplete enabled_indices="post,page" placeholder="Search..." auto_focus="true" open_on_focus="true" results_panel_placement="full-width"]

Available Attributes

You can read about the available attributes for the shortcode detailed in the Shortcode Documentation.

PHP Example:

echo do_shortcode('[yuto_autocomplete]');

This makes it easy to include search in your theme header, sidebar, or anywhere you want!

Elementor Integration via Shortcode

Yuto now works beautifully inside Elementor using the Shortcode widget. No custom block or addon required.

How to Use:

1. Open your page in Elementor.
2. Drag the Shortcode widget where you want to add search.
3. Enter [yuto_autocomplete] in the input field.
4. Update the page — done!

This is perfect for adding search boxes in Elementor-built headers, product pages, or landing pages.

Why This Matters?

• No Block Editor? No Problem. You can now use Yuto’s powerful search even if your site uses the Classic Editor or other builders.
• Maximum Flexibility. Developers and site builders can render search in templates, sidebars, headers, or anywhere using do_shortcode().
• Easy Integration. Elementor users can integrate Yuto in seconds using the native Shortcode widget.
