This plugin modifies the native search function of a site to exclude HTML markup, specifically block editor comments and shortcodes, from search queries. It is designed for site administrators and content managers who find their search results cluttered with irrelevant matches from technical code rather than actual post content.

• Clean Search Results: The core function removes block names and shortcode syntax from being indexed by the search, so queries return matches based on visible post text only.
• Database-Level Filtering: It operates at the database query level using REGEXP_REPLACE, requiring MySQL 8.0.4+ or MariaDB 10.0.5+. This provides a direct fix without needing a separate search index.
• No Configuration Needed: The plugin works immediately upon activation with no settings page, offering a straightforward solution to a specific problem.
• Focused Scope: It addresses a precise issue—unexpected search results from editor markup—without adding broader search customization features, keeping it lightweight.
• Community Supported: Development acknowledges contributions from other developers and welcomes reports of edge cases or incompatibilities through its issue tracker on the code repository.
