    Thank you for the quick reply. We need this type of search engine that will look at the word with or without accents.

    For example, we have a word written: prévention
    If the user searches : prevention, it should give them : prévention.

    Yeah, Plugin supports accents search.

    It will come up with suggestion like "Did you mean prévention?". I'm coming up with few more improvements - Meanwhile I bumped the plugin version.

    Here is a screenshot I took for problem similar to you - http://awesomescreenshot.com/07345q8h38
