=== Super Speedy Search ===

== Changelog ==
= 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. If user searches for Dresses, it will match products within Dresses->Formalwear rather than just at ->Dresses

= 2.00 Beta (16th April 2020) =
* Complete overhaul of settings page to allow full config over what to search
* Search posts, custom posts, taxonomies, or attributes
* Reduced 3 fulltext indexes to 1 to save space (user needs to click button to create the required fulltext index after config)
* Improved accuracy of search by using token1+ token2+ to require both tokens but any spacing apart in the searched index
* Improved speed of fulltext search - now on foundthru (800,000 products) the fulltext search takes about 100 milliseconds https://foundthru.com/?s=harry+potter&post_type=product
* Search has been made fully compatible with latest beta of Faster Woo Widgets so it's easy to drill down on search results - e.g. https://foundthru.com/?s=harry+potter&post_type=product shows toys, books and games
* Product counts in Faster Woo Widgets sidebar now reflect the Super Speedy Search results
* Added check against in-stock products according to WooCommerce config
* Added options for users to use standard LIKE operator (definitely not recommended!)

= 1.27 (7th August 2019) =
* Fixed activation issue causing index to not be created!

= 1.26 (25th June 2019) =
* Fixed warning notice when changing settings for widget in wp-admin -> Appearance

= 1.25 (4th March 2019) =
* Added new fulltext index to wp_postmeta - currently used in orders search
* Removed meta_tag list on settings page - was too slow

= 1.24 (6th October 2018) =
* Hotfix to fix search adding products to empty archive page (including pagination, so scrolling and pagination will work)

= 1.23 (6th October 2018) =
* Improved code so it never replaces the text box in the sidebar (was happening in some themes), so now you can keep typing with ajax
* Increased the time to wait for user to stop typing to 200ms to reduce load on server
* Improved compatibility with auto infinite scroll
* Fixed issue where ajax stopped working if a search returned 0 products and then user continued typing - now ajax works instead of page refreshing to new page
* Fixed issue where products were disappearing sometimes
* Fixed issue where text box was not remaining populated in the widget on page refresh
* Fixed issue where if a search returned only 1 item, woocommerce was preventing it appearing in the ajax search results
* Added available meta_fields to settings page as a convenience so it's easier to build your list of searchable meta data

= 1.22 (24th May 2018) =
* Added full wildcard option for users who need to search attributes
* Re-added ajax search option (now working properly)

= 1.21 (23rd January 2018) =
* Fixed deactivation error that would occur if user had not created fulltext index somehow

= 1.20 (17th January 2018) =
* Added superspeedysearch shortcode
* Added extra info to settings page to explain meta_keys (_sku most common)
* Added JS to strip leading # for users using that to search SKUs

= 1.19 (4th January 2018) =
* Removed unused shortcode option
* Removed 'search as you type' - was causing too many bugs - will re-introduce along with auto-complete - i.e. for slow typers, we'll guess what they're typing, auto-complete and auto-search. Otherwise empty results appear and the search box clears.
* Altered default search to 'best relevance' (even when widget not used)
* Added 2 new sorting options - sort by recent items and sort by relevance + date weight
* Added settings page to allow non-widget search to be configured
* Added option to disable ajax and send userst to normal search results page

= 1.18 (22nd December 2017) =
* Fixed bug preventing proper use of search templates when more than one post_type searched
* Fixed bug when widget used on page which contained 'related products' but no actual products archive (was filling the related products instead of the archive)
* Added 'relevancy' sort ordering to admin page and back end search results - now users can choose to order by a variety of relevancy scores

= 1.17 (30th November 2017) =
* Added JS trigger event after Super Speedy Search complete called super-speedy-search-complete - useful for other developers who implement things like lazy load in their themes so that their code can run after super speedy search has updated the page
* Added search placeholder text option for customisation and internationalisation
* Added search button text option too
* Added option to allow searching of wp_postmeta - admin can choose meta_keys to search

= 1.16 =
* Improved speed when user hits ENTER (instead of waiting 450ms after keypress)
* Fixed widget on non-archive pages, now search redirects to traditional search results pages
