Looking a wordpress plugin or custom script...
 

Im looking for a plugin or even custom script that will make keywords bold when a user searches my blog. For example, surfer searches for "shoes" on my blog, and the search results return with all instances of the word "shoes" being bolded. Let me know what you would charge to create this for me...

just keep on searching you can find them :)

dont really need a plugin for that, can add a snippet to your themes functions.php file

thanks for all your hard work but none of those do exactly what i need, i need ALL instances of the keyword to be bolded not highlighted, this includes the title of the post and none of them do that.

examples?

You'll probably just need to mod an existing plugin - how bad you want it done?

I use this plug-in with a CSS mod so if you can get someone to modify a few little bits of CSS for you, you should be sorted.
