 * i am looking to use this WordPress plugin to crawl a table that is not a post
   or category, but has been added to the WordPress database. I want to know if 
   it’s possible to be able to crawl and index it so I can deliver search results
   on my WordPress site

 * Hi [@imwebdev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/imwebdev/) ,
   Yes it’s possible
   to crawl custom tables too.You will need to ofcourse code the indexing part as
   that can’t be auto covered.Please see documentation here :[https://docs.wptypesense.com/advanced-custom-post-types/](https://docs.wptypesense.com/advanced-custom-post-types/)
   You’ll need to modify it to index according to your custom table.

 * [@digamberpradhan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/digamberpradhan/) do you
   have any examples of such?

   mode.
 * Using only the WooCommerce order tables instead of the WP posts table.

 * Hi [@oarnarsson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/oarnarsson/) 
   If you’re 
   trying to search the orders – i’m afraid we haven’t built a way to do so.If however
   you’re only interested in the showing the Shop and other we have a premium plugin
   for that.I’m assuming you would have to hook into order update and run the indexing
   code.I don’t know for sure though as I haven’t personally done this.

 * I see, thank you for the reply [@digamberpradhan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/digamberpradhan/).
 * My goal is to treat the HPOS orders as you treat products in the premium plugin.
 * That is, to make the searchable just like products.
 * I’ve asked for an estimate for this task via email, hope to hear from you there.
