These versions add new features, but these are mostly small and of interest to developers. As a big change Relevanssi is now active in Media Library searches in the admin backend (if admin searches are enabled): feedback on this is welcome. Excerpts should be slightly better, especially when content stopwords are involved and post part…
I have a book review site where I’m using Relevanssi Premium and the Related posts to highlight related book reviews. The reviews have multiple taxonomies used for the related posts: tags, book author, series, characters, and places. Messy relations The problem is, with the default settings, the Related posts get a bit messy. This site…
Sometimes it can happen the search results include posts from a post type that has been excluded from the index. When that happens, here are things you can check. Are you using Relevanssi? It’s possible your search results are not coming from Relevanssi. The quickest way to check is to use the Relevanssi admin search…
A Relevanssi Premium customer had a problem with product codes. The codes are in the format “ABC 100”, that is a group of letters and a group of digits with a space in between. Users may search for the codes without the space, so the post should be found with either “ABC 100” or “ABC100”.…
The easiest way to debug indexing problems is to use the WP CLI tools available in Relevanssi Premium.

The main reason to release this new version is to fix a major problem with WordPress 4.9 compatibility. I strongly recommend moving on to WordPress 5 (and Classic Editor, if necessary), but this version removes the problem. Since there were couple of changes in Relevanssi behaviour included as well, this is a minor update and…
Someone wanted a way to prioritize posts that are targeting particular Wishlist Member membership level. The basic implementation here is simple: create a relevanssi_hits_filter function that will sort the posts by the level. More information about relevanssi_hits_filter. There’s a trick to this, though, as Wishlist Member does not provide a way to check the level…
The new versions include couple of new filter hooks that are not of big interest to most users, but may be helpful for specific needs. The biggest change in this version is how the stopwords page works: now it is possible to remove all stopwords without having the stopword list automatically repopulate from the default…
Is it possible to set (with filters and/or actions/functions) Relevanssi to use whole words keyword matching for post titles and 2 custom fields, and partial keyword matching only for a specific custom field (sku in this case)? Indeed it is! That is, you can’t set different keyword matching methods to different parts of the post,…
