elements are being stripped from the header/search form output * Improved Admin bar assistance - this still needs improved styling before release = 4.45 (20th February 2024) = * #68 Added a feature for https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/issue-tracker/issues/68 for showing Admin bar assistance for Super Speedy Search on search results pages = 4.44 (16th February 2024) = * Fixed bug in ajax numitems to show config - it was not pulling per-post-type config, fixed now = 4.43 (16th February 2024) = * Improved progress bar so it turns purple on completion and says "All tasks completed" * Improved messaging in progress bar if you change page * Fixed bug with checking the woocommerce_hide_out_of_stock_items - it now properly respects this setting - if you have SSF installed, you can overrule that setting with SSF - with SSF, this setting can also be overruled using a stock-check filter (e.g. show-all or show-in-stock filters, depending on your defaults) = 4.42 (14th February 2024) = * Created feature for https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/issue-tracker/issues/73 - Added search feature for "Product Categories" on Edit Product page - Added "Show All" on "Show Active" radio buttons for "Product Categories" on Edit Product page = 4.41 (9th February 2024) = * Fixed bug in the fix for https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/issue-tracker/issues/59 so that: - if a user upgrades, option sss_search_columns gets set to all 5 columns as was the previous default unless they had SSS_ONLY_SEARCH_TITLE set to true, in which case it's set to match only the post_title - moved the update of this option after table build OUT of the automated build and into the getSQLStatements function so it works for manual builds too - cleaned up (removed) posts_fulltextindex option since it's no longer used = 4.40 (26th January 2024) = * Fixed bug https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/issue-tracker/issues/59 Fix the option in Super Speedy Search to let users choose what to search (title, content, excerpt, meta, taxonomies) * Fixed bug https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/issue-tracker/issues/51 SSS - Alter [metavalues] form html to allow decimals = 4.39 (22th January 2024) = * Fixed bug https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/issue-tracker/issues/47 SSS reset button clears panel, but then clicking inside search box brings panel back with the fetched results * Fixed bug https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/issue-tracker/issues/37 Add 'search whole words' option next to Exact search option in SSS = 4.38 (18th January 2024) = * Fixed bug with search not working for media that was uploaded after the tables had been built - now works for all techniques of uploading media or any attachment type - table rebuild will be required if you were affected by this and attachments will be properly maintained and synchronised to our superspeedysearch table automatically from there on * Further fixes for search orderby - fixes media search since the $query param has orderby = date, order = desc - also refactored the ordering code so we only have one ordering codepath - priority is url parameter, then query variable (was previously ignored), then default settings - if default settings are used, we apply the woocommerce_get_catalog_ordering_args filter * Additional fix for media list grid, searches now correctly order by post_date desc - for some reason woo uses ajax for the grid but full php and no order query set for the list - https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/issue-tracker/issues/44 * Fixed image deletion bug, images are now properly deleted from the search results table - this bug was bigger than this, deletes were not working for any post type - if you have been deleting items from your site after installing super speedy search, you should rebuild our search tables to ensure deleted items do not appear in the search results - https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/issue-tracker/issues/39 = 4.37 (10th January 2024) = * Re-added order-by option by popular demand, just note that some of these options cannot be guaranteed to be ultra fast - https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/super-speedy-search/issues/3 = 4.36 (6th January 2023) = * Fixed strict search when using Synonyms https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/issue-tracker/issues/9 * Fixed ajax product search for linked products and upsell products https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/issue-tracker/issues/17 = 4.35 (22nd November 2023) = * Remove misspellings menu = 4.34 (21st November 2023) = * Updated plugin updater to look at superspeedyplugins.com = 4.33 (21st November 2023) = * Fix for API check, was not caching one type of result * Fixed Ultra Ajax to properly limit the decimal places - https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/issue-tracker/issues/5 * Fixed Ultra Ajax URLs so it uses site_url instead of home_url - this should mean if you install to a sub-folder that the correct relative URL is used - https://github.com/superspeedyplugins/issue-tracker/issues/2 = 4.32 (15th November 2023) = * Hot fix for new stock check code - was breaking product searches with ultra-ajax = 4.31 (15th November 2023) = * Fixed relevancy - woo products search in a weird way - they first run their search which could match EVERYTHING in the db potentially - then they run a second search with all the ids from the first query - this all has been altered to a single efficient query for searches - searches ignore status/category etc * Fixed warnings in new woo product search = 4.30 (15th November 2023) = * Added RELEVANCY to woo admin product search so ideal results are at the top - default woo orders by product id which is crazy talk = 4.29 (15th November 2023) = * Fixed stock check code so it respects what you have configured in Super Speedy Filters - previously it was only obeying the Woo stock control and ignoring the URL parameters * Improved Woo Admin Product Search - now it only searches against our wp_superspeedysearch table rather than using the horribly slow new WooCommerce attribute lookup tables - if you search for a token < 3 characters, it will still be slower if this is your only search string - postmeta is searched based on what is enabled in the Meta tab in settings = 4.28 (10th November 2023) = * Changed remote to github = 4.27 (9th November 2023) = * Fixed upper/lowercase bug with synonymns, now it's case insensitive = 4.26 (31st October 2023) = * Bug fix for taxonomy fulltext search through Ajax * Removed all deprecated warnings = 4.25 (25th October 2023) = * Fixed bug in template_redirect which caused issues if WooCommerce was not installed * Fixed bug in synonyms if users had 'strict search' enabled - if synonyms found, strict search for user string is removed, e.g. "+token* synonym" becomes "token* synonym" otherwise the + prevents the synonym entries appearing * Fixed bug when searching for strings containing periods - full text search always treats . as a token limiter, so we must replace these with spaces - searching for x.abc is now equivalent to searching for "x abc" * Added exact search functionality - this still uses full search, e.g. "WordPress Optimisation Plugin" will be converted to +wordpress* +optimisation* +plugin* but an extra AND is added to the main query - this and performs a simple open-ended wildcard search which is allowed since the fulltext index search has already restricted the set of data, so this wildcard search applies to that subset of data * Ultra ajax compatibility with FIFU premium added - to activate, add define('SSS_ENABLE_FIFU_PREMIUM', true); to your wp-config.php = 4.24 (20th October 2023) = * Added 2 hour transient cache for reading changelog files from our server - this will speed up wp-admin slightly and prevent the 403 forbidden error messages some have been getting when trying to run plugin updates = 4.23 (19th October 2023) = * Added ?is_ultra_ajax_active=1 URL param check to show if must-use plugin is actually active * Added check on settings page that mu-plugin folder exists, it'll create it if it doesn't exist now = 4.22 (5th October 2023) = * Added new Refresh Meta Keys List button to the Meta Search tab - this content gets saved as a transient for 12 hours to alleviate pressure on your server of rebuilding this list = 4.21 (29th September 2023) = * Fix for Cwicly editor components functionality to be compatible (Cwicly use the search API) = 4.20 (28th September 2023) = * Removed CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX super_speedy_meta_ft on `wp_postmeta`(meta_value) if SSS_SPLIT_META_SEARCH set to false = 4.19 (28th September 2023) = * Improved speed of hyphen-based searches - previously hyphen searches were reverting to LIKE searches - now the fulltext search can be used with hyphens and is enabled by default - there are some restrictions to this - the fulltext parser in MySQL doesn't match hyphenated tokens if the initial part of the token is < 3 characters e.g. x-1 or xy-1, whereas xyz-1 would work - i.e. if users search for a hyphenated token which has an initial part with less than 3 characters, we cannot use a fulltext index search and so to maintain speed we switch to a wildcard search which only has a wildcard at the end - for example, searches for x-1 would search x-1% rather than %x-1% - this keeps speed fast, but it means if you have a product called "Phone x-1" that the match will not happen against the product name - in these cases, you can either add a meta field and configure it to be searched and place 'x-1' in that meta field, or you can set this constant SSS_SEARCH_SHORT_HYPHENS_FULLY to true and it will search for %x-1% instead of x-1% - note that open-ended wildcard searches like %x-1% cause full table scans * Improved speed of postmeta search - 2 queries previously run, first to search against wp_postmeta - previously these post IDs were included in the main query using an OR statement, but somehow this was slowing down the fulltext index search and causing a table scan (MySQL query optimizer not great!) - now, the main search is exclusively using the fulltext search, no OR statement, and the matches happen against the metavalues column - performance on 2 million product store improved from 5s to 0.02s when matches happen against postmeta (e.g. SKU search) - to revert this behaviour, define SSS_SPLIT_META_SEARCH as true in wp-config (see the defines.php file for more info) = 4.18 (21st September 2023) = * Fixed bug in Ultra ajax which was causing page searches not to return * Fixed bug with CSS which was causing ajax section headers to hide = 4.17 (12th September 2023) = * Updated updates system to match spro, ssf etc = 4.16 (23rd August 2023) = * Added delete hook for table maintenance! Deleted items which were not first trashed were still appearing in search. (e.g. if you deleted through wp all import) - you may wish to run a table rebuild after this update = 4.15 (22nd August 2023) = * Added new SSS_ENABLE_WP_OFFLOAD_MEDIA_FAST_AJAX definition - set this to true in your wp-config.php if you are using wp offload media and wish to use our ultra fast ajax - this is beta, not fully tested, looking for feedback = 4.14 (10th August 2023) = * Hotfix for new updates system - if your server was configured to disable remote URL requests, a critical error was happening upon upgrade. This has been fixed with a warning message that you cannot check for updates. = 4.13 (4th August 2023) = * Upgraded main settings page to show changes since last update - added update count to menu to help users notice * Added links to all plugin docs and support areas in the settings page = 4.12 Beta (26th July 2023) = * Upgraded updates sytem so it uses JSON and gets zip file from license-key-checked URL = 4.11 (14th July 2023) = * Fixed bug in Order search so that search for test_search will work - _ in search string was causing open wildcards to remain * Fixed bug with Search Suggestions header - header now correctly hides if no suggestions available - header also correctly hides if suggestions disabled but taxonomies enabled = 4.10 (7th July 2023) = * Upgraded mu-plugin copy system - rather than just checking existence of mu-plugin at destination, it now compares version numbers - this will fix taxonomy search if you had started with 4.03 or less = 4.09 (7th July 2023) = * Fixed bug in Woo Order search which was causing order search to fail if users had non wp_ table prefix * Added _sku search to Woo Order search so you can search for orders containing specific SKU products = 4.08 (6th July 2023) = * Fix for repeat table rebuilds where fulltext index on wp_woocommerce_order_items was causing an error = 4.07 (6th July 2023) = * SSS_SEARCH_VARIATIONS & SSS_ROLLUP_VARIATIONS defines.php options removed and moved into admin menu - at the bottom of the main tab you can now choose to 'search variations' and 'show variations' - with both of these disabled, only parent products will be searched (if searching products) - with both enabled, variations will be shown including their link to the parent product to auto select that variation - e.g. red dress will show the red image and link to the dress with red selected - with search variations enabled and show variations disabled, variation attributes and possibly meta (if you add the _variation_description meta key to be searched) will be searched but parent products will be shown - if you disable search variations but enable show variations then this does nothing really and it behaves like both are deselected * Fixed bug for those searching products who are not using SSF - ajax was working but not full page results * Fixed bug with search suggestions where a double space was causing the suggestions search to fail * Fixed text description of our Ultra-fast ajax in the settings page = 4.06 (30th June 2023) = * Removed warnings and errors that were occurring on initial installations * Hardened the initial build - do not allow override of front-end forms until tables are built - ensure build does not encounter errors - Changed SET sql_mode='ALLOW_INVALID_DATES' to SET SESSION sql_mode='ALLOW_INVALID_DATES' - added checks for existing indexes to ensure no errors come back from wpdb - added checks all over for brand-new installs to ensure no errors reported to debug.log - added checks for new unsaved widgets to make sure these don't show errors * Fixed tab JS problem which was causing other Woo tabs to be deselected * Changed default for Ajax Date display to 'hide' * v4.06 uses a slightly updated table definition DB version 4.02 = 4.05 (22nd June 2023) = * Fixed taxonomy ajax search - this unfortunately has to use SLOW ajax since it needs access to taxonomy definitions which mean Woo + a bunch of other stuff must be loaded - it may be possible yet to make a faster version of this however which only loads what's required, for now it uses the REST API * Fixed duplicate id for focusable element ssstext * Fixed hyphenated search strings - hyphenated searches will unfortunately be a little slower - fixed empty searches which were causing db errors = 4.04 (19th June 2023) = * Fixed fast ajax so it discovers variation price ranges = 4.03 (19th June 2023) = * Fixed bug in edit-term action which was affecting those with non wp_ prefixes for the db name = 4.02 (9th June 2023) = * Updated Woo Order search to fix Order Item search to use fulltext index * Added fix for variation rollup compatibility with SSF rollup/show single variations (beta feature) = 4.01 (22nd May 2023) = * Fixed exclude_terms option from widget * Standardised restful interface, full tested, added list view in new fast ajax * Added currency symbol, decimal symbol, thousands symbol & currency position to fast ajax technique * Added client-side performance measurement for debug mode - fast ajax on local is 20ms vs 380ms for normal REST API * Fixed bug in SSS_ROLLUP_VARIATIONS which was breaking search when used with SSF * Removed Ajax widget panel from JS - this may get added back in later, but it's stupidly slow to have this for search * SSS_FAST_VISIBILITY_CHECK default changed to TRUE - you can still override this if you wish and go back to checking against the join to term_taxonomies etc - the table maintenance is perfect now, so you should never need to - in addition, the new must-use fast ajax plugin runs prior to the 'product-visibility' taxonomy being registered in the code, so WP_Query returns 0 products if product-visibility taxonomy is checked - i.e. we cannot run fast ajax and do anything with WP_Query relating to taxonomies since they are not yet registered * Added new fallback code for variation images - if you enable individual variations to be SHOWN, if they have no image, they will use their parents image * Fixed a bug when updating variation info - the meta _variation_description was not being updated to our superspeedysearch table due to a different hook being used by Woo when saving these versus when importing = 4.00 (17th May 2023) = * Added full custom override of RESTful interface to deliver TRULY INSTANT ajax search results! - by default, SSS will now use the normal WP REST API, but you can upload a must-use plugin file to your must-use folder to get FAR faster ajax results = 3.39 (23rd March 2023) = * Added new language template for en_gb * Removed use of TGM plugin activiation library = 3.38 (8th March 2023) = * Fixed bug with exclude_terms option in the widget - was causing a critical error if user had upgraded from old pre-October 2022 widget! * Added new Synonyms beta tab to Settings - enter synonyms in CSV format, e.g. jerseys, jersey, pullovers, pullover, cardigan and if the user enters any of these words, the others will all be searched too * Weights improved significantly - title, content, excerpt, meta, taxonomy will all get a score if any of the words match, but will get doubled if all of the words match (based on whatever weight factor you enter in config) = 3.37 (7th March 2023) = * Added fulltext usermeta search addition for users.php * Added new defines.php entry to support above - default: define('SSS_USERMETA_KEYS', ''); * Added filter to eliminate open-ended wildcard searches on users * Added 2 new indexes on wp_users on user_nicename and user_email * Added user search override to additionally search user_nicename and user_email * Added fulltext index on wp_usermeta * Added new option to user interface to override user search = 3.36 (21st February 2023) = * Fixed bug when editing/adding new media - wordpress uses a separate hook for these even though they are posts * Fixed bug with media search pagination if you had set a limit to the number of posts returned in the search results * Added additional query vars to prevent update_post_term_cache, update_menu_item_cache and update_post_meta_cache = 3.35 (26th January 2023) = * Fixed JS error that was occuring on wp-admin pages * Changed to default to rebuild suggestions when rebuilding since this was causing some confusion * Fixed bug with Taxonomy Search - when Taxonomy search was enabled it was breaking other search too * Fixed bug with exclude_terms being missing/empty in widget for updated plugin, this caused fatal error on update to 3.33 if user had a widget enabled and first load somehow involved updating that widget = 3.34 (14th January 2023) = * Added backtick quotes around table names for customer who has table prefixes starting with a number * Removed 5 token suggestion combo - it's never used and slows down the table build/rebuild massively = 3.33 (7th December 2022) = * Added new filter to allow users to search additional postmeta fields from the Woo Product Admin screen - To search additional meta fields you'll need to add a filter to return an array of the keys you wish to search - You can find the KB article describing this here: https://www.wpintense.com/knowledgebase/how-to-add-extra-meta-fields-to-woo-product-admin-search/ = 3.32 (18th November 2022) = * Fix for bug with searching Woo Orders by order number when both Orders override and backend override were enabled = 3.31 (11th November 2022) = * Fixed variations override which fixes meta search for variations - this should also fix variation rollups for affected configs = 3.30 (11th November 2022) = * Further fix for meta search - I've reverted to using my own query param rather than post__in - This fixes the issue where in some configs post__in was being ANDed with the main search query meaning if the SKU didn't also exist in the text it would fail to match = 3.29 (8th November 2022) = * Added missing query_vars required for exclude_terms URL parameters - I may upgrade this in future to allow some defaults to be set here so they don't need to be set in the URL, but for now they are per-widget = 3.28 (8th November 2022) = * Fixed meta search bug that was being caused by switch to using post__in array - meta search now works properly * Fixed terms rebuild - this had been broken * Added per-taxonomy term_id exclusions to widget * Fixed term_id exclusions in both ajax and in full page results * Added option to search multiple post types on full page results - this will currently use the posts search template = 3.27 (5th November 2022) = * Added new default post type option to widget & shortcode * Fixed post types in widgets so that they use the values specified in widget/shortcode * Added override code for suggestions, tax and widget panel to NOT run unless default empty [superspeedysearch] shortcode used (without override) - will in future add per-post type suggestions - currently suggestions, tax search and widget panel are global controlled and only available to one search box * Added exclude term_ids option to widgets - this actually relies on term_id = term_taxonomy_id and it does not handle children yet = 3.26 (1st November 2022) = * Updated suggestions build to build only using post types listed in ajax panel - this list will become the accepted list of searchable post types and will be viewable from the full results page too soon (as opposed to requiring the 'see all' button per post type) = 3.25 (1st November 2022) = * Fixed warning if no weights set for post type = 3.24 (26nd October 2022) = * Fixed post_status override so it only runs if user searching for attachment, e.g. from media - this fixes order_id search * Upgraded meta search to use post__in which will allow other plugins which use this WP_Query var to work (e.g. show single variations plugin, although we have that functionality built in now and faster) = 3.23 (22nd October 2022) = * Added extra check to SQL Build to remove empty queries and avoid DB errors for those cases = 3.22 (21st October 2022) = * Fixed Smart variation search in Ajax search - if your search matches a product variation, this will now be shown in ajax just like in full search results = 3.21 (19th October 2022) = * Implemented Smart variation search + rollup - two new defines.php options - if the search matches more than 1 item in the parent product, you will see the parent, otherwise you'll see the variation - this means if a user searches 'white dresses' they'll see an archive full of white items - SSS_SEARCH_VARIATIONS - defaults to true - whether to search variations as well as parent products for woocommerce searches - SSS_ROLLUP_VARIATIONS - defaults to true - whether to group search matches to the parent (true) or show individual variations (false) * Added new Misspellings & Synonyms taxonomy - a new tag-like meta-box now appears on all post types where you can enter misspellings and/or synonyms for the item * Fixed build job so that it creates the unique wp_options(option_name) index if it doesn't exist and then correctly UPSERTS the DB version number. This fixes the issue with DB version staying 0 for new users. * Added new pre_sss_meta_keys for massive websites - add a filter on this to return an array of meta_keys to show on the META KEYS tab and we will not scan wp_postmeta * Fixed product counting bug for variations when a filter was applied. SQL was joining to children twice which meant that it was behaving as if the filter was not applied. = 3.20 (17th October 2022) = * Hardened pre_get_posts check since some themes incorrectly report is_search as true when there is no search string = 3.19 BETA (10th October 2022) = * Altered JS back to use old way of Ajax until upgrade is complete so i can merge this code to core = 3.18 BETA (10th October 2022) = * Improved weights to match mismatched titles far better - e.g. search padre hats against a product called padres hat will match better now * Added new wp-config define option define('SSS_ONLY_SEARCH_TITLE', false); - set this to true in wp-config.php if you want to force everything to only search the title.

fixes search result pages for multiple post types, so all post types are searched = 2.22 BETA (16th July 2021) = * Fixed shortcode so that it respects the post_types you pass - this allows you to overrule the global post_types settings for each search widget you create * Added per-post type sections to ajax search results -

particularly important for words containing periods like 2.5" or 3.5" etc * Hard coded in WORD DISTANCE booster to the score - if words are close together (closer than 5) then that row gets a score boost * Hard coded in TITLE LENGTH reduction to the score - this makes pages with smaller title lengths more relevant because otherwise the relevancy score prefers titles that mention words more than once - e.g. HDD CASE, Takes any HDD Drive - HDD mentioned twice so gets higher score normally than 2.5" HDD * Hard coded in IN STOCK score booster - obviously only relevant to products, but will not break other non-product searches with other post types = 2.13 BETA (24th May 2021) = * Perf update - wrap union in ()s and select top 100 from each pre-union = 2.12 BETA (28th April 2021) = * Refactored how this works, made it simpler to maintain * Rewrote how postmeta queries work - they've been altered to use a UNION instead of a LEFT JOIN. FAR faster now. * Updated functions to make integration with FWW far faster * NOTE: This Beta version includes missing functionality - taxonomy searches will do nothing and it will only ever order by relevance, not by date. - i altered the query using alter_query filter - would be better to alter the query using the SEARCH filter and perform an IN statement to restrict the posts = 2.11 (6th April 2021) = * Added a filter for wp-admin woo product search to use fulltext indexes, if they are created = 2.10 (6th April 2021) = * Improved speed of meta search queries * Improved relevance of all queries - best results at the top * Added special case for "phrase-matching" when hyphens exist in the token * Fixed bug in non-fulltext meta search - it now respects CONTAINS, STARTSWITH or ENDSWITH depending on what you set in the settings page = 2.09 (22nd October 2020) = * Fixed bug with non-full text search which was causing searches to only search LIKE 'xxx%' rather than LIKE '%xxx%' = 2.08 (30th September 2020) = * Added new WPI Settings page where users can enter their license key to enable plugin updates = 2.07 (2nd September 2020) = * Removed superfluous plugin links on wp-admin -> plugins page * Altered wp_postmeta SQL to use nested IN rather than WHERE EXISTS - this improved speed AND fixed the related bug with FWW = 2.06 (15th July 2020) = * Fixed bug in multisite detection so that fulltext search will work properly in networked sites * Fixed issue with shortcode when restricting results to specific taxonomies, this was causing WP_Query to add AND (0 = 1) = 2.05 (24th June 2020) = * Added tax and taxslugs parameters to superspeedysearch shortcode - if you use [superspeedysearch tax="product_cat" taxslugs="dogs"] then this search box will restrict the searches to the product category dogs only = 2.04 (23rd June 2020) = * Re-added ajax capability to widget (ajax still only works for WooCommerce archives) * Removed unused fields from widget * Fixed broken 'spinner' when ajax searching * Fixed post_type URL parameter so search result template will be picked up properly * Added wildcard searching on fulltext indexes by default - very little perf difference, so on by default as it IS expected behaviour by most people * Cleaned up JS a bit, removing unused variables and URL parameters to make search results page cleaner * Removed keyup ajax detection when enter key hit - this allows user to hit enter to actually go to fresh new page if they wish, rather than just the ajaxed page = 2.03 Beta (22nd June 2020) = * Added multisite compatibility * Added cache to settings page so 2nd+ visits on same day will be fast (it's slow to look up all the possible meta fields) = 2.02 Beta (26th May 2020) = * Fixed empty result sets when using tokens < 3 characters (will improve further to allow this to be configurable if you alter minimum token size in mysql config) = 2.01 Beta (22nd April 2020) = * Added automatic inclusion of subchildren of taxonomies.
