Release notes
This is release 1.9 of the Search API module. It contains numerous improvements to the module, bug fixes as well as new features.
Addendum: Some issues were reported after this release was created regarding #2110315: Specialized filter for users and terms. If you are using taxonomy term filters on the "Parent term" or "All parent terms" properties of a taxonomy term reference, or on another reference that isn't the Field API field itself, please either use the current dev version or wait for the next release 1.10, which should be released shortly.
There are two notable changes which might need special care for a few specific setups:
- #2086783: Remove Views field handlers for "virtual" fields removes the Views field handlers for "virtual" fields, i.e., fields added by data alterations or the like. This was done since these fields can usually not be displayed (since they only exist in the search index, not on the entity itself) and the field handlers were therefore useless and confusing. However, when using Solr (or maybe other backends, too), the fields can be retrieved from the search server directly and viewing them is actually possible.
If you are using this setup, you will likely need #2099683: Add support for "virtual fields" in Views for the Solr backend (contained in the new Search API Solr Search 7.x-1.3 release) for things to keep working as before. - Secondly, #2088905: Search API Views and Panels paths. adds some special path handling for Views in combination with Panels. If you use a Panels with Search API Views, please make sure this change doesn't break anything before deploying this module update.
