Relevanssi Premium 1.7 release notes

This version fixes some small bugs and adds cool new features. This version is not a mandatory update, but recommended thanks to the bug fixes. I’d recommend some caution with the new features on important sites.

Relevanssi now stores more data about custom fields and custom taxonomies, allowing more fine-tuned control of results.
It is now possible to adjust weights for all taxonomies, not just categories and tags.
There was a bug in custom field indexing that caused all custom field terms get a term frequency of 1.
There was a bug in custom taxonomy indexing, effects of which are uncertain. Probably nothing major.
The tag (and tags) query variable now accepts tag names as well as tag IDs. For category names, you can use category_name.
Relevanssi can now index user-specified MySQL columns from the wp_posts table.
It’s now possible to give a weight bonus for recent posts.

For fine-tuning, when using relevanssi_match filter, the $match object passed now contains more information of the hits in custom fields and custom taxonomies.

Boosting shorter posts with higher keyword density

By default, Relevanssi tends to prefer longer posts. The default TF × IDF weights Relevanssi uses simply count the term frequency, ie. how many times a word appears in the post. That prefers longer po...

I got a bug notice, which I decided to fix right away. I also added couple of small features while I was at it. Fixed a bug related that caused AND queries containing short search terms to fall bac...

Adding extra weight to AND results in an OR search

My Relevanssi engine has the AND operator enabled, with a fallback to OR when the search finds no matches. I'd like the search to display first the AND results and later the OR results.For example, if...
