Every row is a public field of the two listings. This page does not score plugin quality.
Which to pick
- Both are at verification L3, so the difference is not how far the install was checked.
- Modsearch has the larger community (417 stars), though star counts measure attention rather than safety or quality.
Questions
- Are DSH Free Search and Modsearch interchangeable?
- They overlap in what they do (they share at least one category or use case), but they differ in install path and how far they were checked: DSH Free Search is L3, Modsearch is L3. Confirm the install command in the table above, then try it in an isolated profile.
- Which one is more current?
- Modsearch was checked more recently (2026-09-08 against 2026-09-05). That date is when this directory last verified the listing, not when the plugin last shipped a release.
