== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Is this plugin compatible with all themes? =
No, this plugin is not compatible with all themes. If your theme already includes a built-in mechanism for highlighting search keywords, this plugin may not override those styles.

It is compatible with themes that use the following standard WordPress functions to display search results:

- `the_title()`
- `get_the_title()`
- `the_excerpt()`
- `the_content()`

If your theme uses custom functions to output search content, this plugin may not work as expected.

Color options are available. You can select the highlight color from the plugin's settings page. The following highlight colors are available:

* Yellow
* Light Green
* Orange
* Light Blue
* Pink
