Could this plugin work without Relevanssi plugin installed?

No, sorry.

Relevanssi author here. Please do not use this plugin in its current form. It’s dangerous for performance and may cause server crashes. It will also slow down page loads in a rather terrifying manner.

This is a nice plugin but it breaks my customised search box. The search box doesn’t display properly unless No Style is selected, and even then once you start typing into the search box, the drop-down has no border and looks silly. Other than that, it’s a promising plugin and would be a nice feature to have.

This little plugin adds autocomplete to Relevanssi, simple and effective. NIce options for using their style sheet or you can use your own.
