Releases for Search API Solr search

Release notes

This is the fourth release candidate of the Search API Solr Search module, containing some bug fixes and new features.

Most notably, #1846254: Remove the SolrPhpClient dependency removed the dependency on the SolrPhpClient library. (Note: It's therefore important to run update.php immediately after upgrading the module to this version.) This module can therefore now be enabled like any other module, without installing any third-party libraries. After upgrading to this version, you can safely remove the SolrPhpClient library from your server.

#1897386: Update the common schema changed the used configuration files somewhat. You should therefore replace the configuration files and restart the Solr server. The changes are backwards-compatible, though, re-indexing is therefore not necessary (if you are upgrading from RC3 – upgrades from earlier versions still require a re-indexing, as noted in the RC3 release notes).

Also, #1744250: Support location based search added support for location-based searches. For code using this feature, see #1798168: Major module modifications.

If no new major bugs are reported for this release, a stable 1.0 release will be created soon.

Release notes

This release contains an important security fix. Users of the module are strongly encouraged to update to this version as soon as possible.
If you are using an older version, incorrectly escaped error messages might lead to your site being vulnerable to an XSS attack. Note, however, that this can only occur if you somehow allow users to specify the used internal field identifiers (e.g., through Views exposed sorts or the old (deprecated) Search API Facets module).

Release notes

This beta release contains bug fixes as well as some new features, like support for OR facets and for getting result data directly from Solr.

Note: schema.xml and solrconfig.xml were changed, so you will have to update them in your Solr server, restart it and maybe also re-index the data (at least to use all new features).

Release notes

There are a lot of bug fixes in this release. The new features are really only relevant to developers, though, who gain additional possibilities to extend the service class. Following is a complete list of issues fixed:
