Versions 1.16.0 and 3.6.0 have a new major version number, because these versions change how Relevanssi attaches itself to queries. In my tests, this hasn’t affected how Relevanssi works, but it is possible that especially in unusual use cases this may cause problems. On the upside, this change should reduce the number of compatibility issues…
Both Relevanssi Premium and the free version have been updated. Both version include a update to the taxonomy query handling. Previous versions couldn’t handle nested tax_queries properly. That works now. There were also some issues with the post type exclusion: it didn’t work quite as expected. Premium version also includes a significant performance improvement on…
Relevanssi Premium 1.15.3.1 and free 3.5.11.1 are minor bug fix releases. They fix a notice about an undefined variable in 1.15.3 or 3.5.11 – nothing to worry about, but if you’ve got debug mode enabled, you’d see an error message in most searches. This version also adds two new filters that let you disable one-letter searches,…
Relevanssi Premium 1.15.3 fixes many bugs and improves Relevanssi behaviour in many cases. Indexing taxonomy terms is further improved, as is highlighting HTML tags. A fairly big change is how Relevanssi handles taxonomy terms and user profiles when a post type parameter is used. Previously setting a post type parameter didn’t exclude taxonomy terms and…
Relevanssi Premium 1.15.2 is a bug fix release, which improves many areas in Relevanssi. It is a recommended upgrade. After you upgrade, I suggest rebuilding the index, especially if you are indexing taxonomy terms. When a taxonomy term was saved, Relevanssi didn’t record the changes correctly. New WP CLI commands to index only users or…
Version 3.5.9 caused a very nasty fatal parse error on some users. This version fixes that, and also several smaller, rare errors. The recent changes in Relevanssi made life complicated for FacetWP users; that is also fixed. Some users got a fatal parse error. That shouldn’t happen anymore. FacetWP users ran into trouble, as relevanssi_do_query()…
This update matches Relevanssi Premium 1.15.1 and contains some improvements to how Relevanssi works. The biggest change is the added support for taxonomy queries using field set to name. Here’s the full list of changes: Improved the way highlighting handles HTML tags, especially when highlighting on post pages. The throttle limit setting was removed from…
Relevanssi Premium 1.15.1 adds new features and contains bug fixes. The biggest new feature is WP CLI support. Relevanssi Premium now includes WP CLI commands that can be used to access Relevanssi features from the command line. The most important one is wp relevanssi index, which can be used to rebuild even large indexes without…
Version 1.15.0 includes several improvements to multisite searching: pinning works now in multisite searches, the API key is changed to a network option and it’s now possible to copy Relevanssi settings from one blog to all the other blogs (there’s no way to copy the settings to just one blog; that’s coming in the next…
Relevanssi 3.5.8 is out now and available from the plugin repository. Relevanssi has a XSS vulnerability. If you are using the “Did you mean” feature, it is possible to construct a search query that contains scripts that are automatically run on the page if the “Did you mean” feature runs. See the DWXSecurity report on…
