 * I see stated in your description you index the database. So might be a dumb question
   but getting desperate. Does or can your plugin craw the site and index that way?
   I have a ton of dynamic content because of a poorly thought out plugin (required
   to use) that creates pages from an external source and basically renders a page
   on request. Very little to nothing sits in the database itself.

 * Hi,
 * WPSOLR does not crawl websites: the index is built from structured data (WP database),
   which is the only way to build advanced search features like facets.
 * But you’ll find other WP search plugins that do what you want.
