Bible SuperSearch

Add the Bible to your website with a Bible search engine and a Bible download page. Our Bible search engine includes multiple selectable interfaces, allowing you to make it appear as simple or as complex as desired. The Bible downloads is included in the main application, but is also available as a separate shortcode for a separate page. Keep your users on your website! Unlike similar plugins, Bible SuperSearch displays the Bible text directly on your website; your web users will not be redirected to a 3rd party website to view the text. This is the official Bible SuperSearch plugin. It allows for seamless use of the Bible SuperSearch client and API on any WordPress site. This plugin pulls data from our API transparently. You also have the option to install our API on your server for complete autonomy. NOTICE: PHP requirement change coming in Version 6.0.
