Sometimes unexpected things happen when releasing updates for Relevanssi Premium. Version 2.2.3 passed all our tests with flying colours and during our local testing showed no signs of trouble. However, once it was released, bug reports started trickling in – incompatibility with the Redirection plugin (which we’ve never used), problems with Internet Explorer (which we…
2.2.3 adds a new Premium feature: redirects. This feature allows you to define keywords that will be automatically redirect the user to a certain page. While this feature is only available for Premium users, this update is still very much worth the while for the users of free Relevanssi. For starters, there’s a fix for…
The latest update unfortunately broke the User searches page. This update fixes that problem. I’ve also updated my test suite to catch further errors like those, so similar issues should not happen again. The Premium update also includes a minor improvement, where the “How Relevanssi sees this post” feature is now hidden by default and…
Version 2.2.2 of Premium and the matching 4.1.1 version of free include some minor fixes to search parameters. The biggest fixes are related to meta key sorting of results, some annoying error messages that crop up if you try to sort by an ACF field for example should be gone now. There were also some…
By default, Relevanssi does not index the post slug. It is, however, an easy thing to fix using the relevanssi_content_to_index filter hook. This function will read the post slug, replace the hyphens with spaces (so that indexing-post-slugs becomes “indexing post slugs”) and add the slug to the post content. Add this function to your site…
Posts and pages on the product search results The Flatsome theme, when combined with WooCommerce, has a product search results page that can also show posts and pages. That doesn’t work with Relevanssi out of the box, but fortunately can be made to work. The function that adds the functionality is hooked in place, so…
There was an interesting support question: I have website with logged-in users as well as non-logged-in users. The logged-in user should be able to search through everything on the website, but the non-logged-in users should only be able to search the user profiles. Is it at all possible to differentiate the searches like this? The…
Version 4.1 adds couple of new features: you can do searches in the admin using the full power of Relevanssi, and you can export the Relevanssi search logs as a CSV file. The admin search is very much a work-in-progress; any feedback is welcome. Changelog New feature: You can now…
It’s been a while since the previous Relevanssi Premium release, and there’s enough material to make this a bigger version number shift. The new version includes bunch of bug fixes, nothing particularly fatal or related to vulnerabilities, but especially multisite searching works better now. The new features should be interesting….…have for this feature. It’s currently a Premium feature, but it’s so useful for debugging that it’ll eventually be introduced to the free version as well. For debugging, you can now see how Relevanssi sees the post from the post edit pages. This should help debugging some indexing issues. You……Relevanssi. New feature: Post type archives can now be indexed. This will index the label and the description of the post type. New feature: Relevanssi now has a privacy mode that blocks outside connections: at the moment that means update checks and indexing attachments with Relevanssi indexing services. This helps…
If you want to have a search with a date range, that’s possible with Relevanssi. It takes a bit of handling, though, as Relevanssi expects date ranges in the date query format, and getting to that from search form can be tricky. Here’s the code you need for date range searches: Add this code to…
