Create index on es server if it doesn't exist

[parisholley]

Seems some people tend to miss the obvious step of creating it first :)

I created index first and index it after that, but ES doesnt work. WP still searching by default not with ES. Any solutions?

same here!

curl 'localhost:9200/_cat/indices?v'
health status index pri rep docs.count docs.deleted store.size pri.store.size
green open nekoanimedd 5 0 929 0 4mb 4mb

my index is nekoanimedd

My elastic search debug show results:

curl 'http://localhost:9200/nekoanimedd/_search?pretty=true&q=:'

show results!

But the search page looks empty!

curl 'http://localhost:9200/nekoanimedd/_search?pretty=true&q=post:Rosario'
