@CarloPerni Hi, I have sent you the pre-release version of the WPFTS. According to front-end issues: could you tell me please, which theme you are currently using? It does matter.
Also please check if you have any other search-related plugin(s) enabled and try to temporary disable them. It should help.
Thanks!
@Rainer Hi, I answered you in the private message. Thanks!
@kotatsuhal Thank you. I am checking the problem right now. Very interesting case!
@kotatsuhal Thank you for your report. I sent you a private message about how can we try to fix that, please read.
@kotatsuhal Also please ensure you have memory_limit value in php.ini bigger than 256M and mb_string library is enabled.
@kotatsuhal Please check the private chat, I sent you the new version.
@kotatsuhal I sent you a prerelease version to the private chat. Please try to install it above the 2.46.180. This should help.
Please let me know if it does help.
@cloudconnection Hi, I sent you pre-release version via the private message. Sorry, I don't want to share this version since it's a bit "raw" yet. But new release coming very very soon.
Thank you.
Hi @ismacuasni
Please check your private chat, I sent you a new prerelease version that should fix this problem.
Let me know if you got that. Thanks.
Hi @ismacuasni
Please let me know which WPFTS version you are using for this. Thanks.
Hi @Bards
Officially yes, 2.46.180 is the latest. However there is a pre-release version 2.49.208 that have a lot of fixes including fixed support for PHP8.1+
I've sent you that version to the private chat, please install it to replace 2.46.180 and try with PHP8.1.
Hi @Bards
Okay could you still tell me which WPFTS version is there?
Basically it can be too old, because latest WPFTS version DOES support PHP8.1.
Hi @Bards
It's a very strange issue. Look to the error message, it says "Call to undefined function error_log()" that means "error_log" function was not found. However it's a native PHP function which should be present always.
https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.error-log.php
Why it's not defined? It can be your server or your hosting issue. Could you consult your hosting provider's support for that?
Also there is a link to this code from WPFTS core:
$q = 'select
count(*) n_inindex,
sum(if ((force_rebuild = 0) and (build_time != 0), 1, 0)) n_actual
from `'.$idx.'index`
where `tsrc` = "wp_posts"';
$res = $wpfts_core->db->get_results($q, ARRAY_A);
As you can see it's a very simple code that basically should not trigger a critical error.
Please could you tell me which WPFTS version you tried and which PHP version is used there.
Thank you!
Hi @Bards
Strange issue. Could you please check or share your error.log with lines about fulltext-search plugin? There should be any records in this case.
Could you share any screenshot with the critical error message?
Thanks!
@docholliday Hi I sent you a pre-release version of WPFTS to the chat. Please check it out. Thank you!
@NetzPrinz I sent you a newer (pre-release) version to the private chat. Please try to install it above the 2.46.180, it has numerous fixes including those for better indexing.
@dcuder It's not correct. For the WPFTS the number of documents is not limited on any plan (neither free nor pro).
@NetzPrinz Often this happen because there is one post that breaks the indexing routine. We tried to make the indexing routine more protected from such cases, but it is still happen sometimes (in very rare cases!). Could you please tell me which version of the WPFTS you are using currently?
The one small conflict we detected today with the relatively new Scientia Theme.
This theme is great, but unfortunately it does not show file content excerpts in search results with WPFTS Pro which rather greatly reduces the user experience of the site.
Fortunately, this is quite easy to fix. The reason is that the authors of this theme (Scientia Theme) decided to override the standard excerpt generation function, and it is the standard the_excerpt hook that our plugin intercepts to output clever quotes.
Let's create our own function, which will declare itself a little earlier and prevent the theme from creating its own.
Our function is very simple and looks like this
if ( ! function_exists( 'scientia_excerpt' ) ) {
function scientia_excerpt( $str, $maxlength, $add = '…' ) {
ob_start();
the_excerpt();
return ob_get_clean();
}
}
This solution has been tested with Scientia Theme v1.0.2.
Of course, you don't need to go into the code now and paste it in. You can just download our add-on, where this code is already there.
Hi, Larry
The problem with the links has been fixed - just a typo in the code. The code in the messages above is correct.
