Here is small code to make your WordPress Search Result more friendly for SEO (Search Engine Optimization). It will result http://www.shouthuns.com/search/find-something/ instead http://www.shouthuns.com/?s=find+something
Just put this code into top of the header of your themes. (Remember! It should be placed on first line on your header themes)
<?php
$src = strtolower(mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['s']));
$sclear = ereg_replace("[^ 0-9a-zA-Z]", " ", $src);
// Remove multiple spaces
while (strstr($sclean, " ")) {
$sclear = str_replace(" ", " ", $sclear);
}
// Replace spaces with a URL friendly + sign
$sclear = str_replace(" ", "-", $sclear);
// If valid then redirect to the URL rewritten search page
if ($sclear != '') {
header( 'Location: http://www.shouthuns.com/search/'.$sclear.'/' );
}
?>
$src = strtolower(mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['s']));
$sclear = ereg_replace("[^ 0-9a-zA-Z]", " ", $src);
// Remove multiple spaces
while (strstr($sclean, " ")) {
$sclear = str_replace(" ", " ", $sclear);
}
// Replace spaces with a URL friendly + sign
$sclear = str_replace(" ", "-", $sclear);
// If valid then redirect to the URL rewritten search page
if ($sclear != '') {
header( 'Location: http://www.shouthuns.com/search/'.$sclear.'/' );
}
?>
