SELECT * FROM `wp_options` WHERE `option_name` LIKE '%jetpack_search%' ORDER BY option_name ASC;

// If we are on localhost, force Jetpack online

   add_filter( 'jetpack_offline_mode', '__return_false' );
}

REQUIREMENT

• Jetpack Instant Search must be active in a staging site, this won't work if you use a Live version
• Jetpack installed in your local environment

Run the SQL in your staging database, you should get something like this:

Copy the options jetpack_search_plan_info and jetpack_search_ever_supported_search into your local database

Note: If you can't access the staging database but have the SQL, you can do a manual search with a text editor, or import the DB locally and look for that data there.

Add the PHP filter at your functions.php file, inside a plugin or a mu-plugin.

If you access to the Jetpack dashboard, and you won't see the Search menu, you could access manually by adding admin.php?page=jetpack-search to the wp-admin path

To configure the search, paste admin.php?page=jetpack-search-configure to the wp-admin path
