Searching jekyll posts and enabling tags in GitHub pages

Search Post

Ronv’s Sidey theme already had the search ability; But, was not searching post’s content. It is using the Java script search. It has nice wiki which listed all the options.

In the search.json file add the below line to enable it!

"content" : {{ post.content | jsonify }}
