Ajax Search Pro - Live WordPress Search & Filter Plugin 4.26.16

New features

• Cache method is now possible to choose: file (default) or database

Fixes

• Removed a commented code section, which caused WordFence to trigger a false positive match

New features

• “Double Quotation” option as an exact matching feature for regular engine. When enabled, words in quotation marks are treated as a single term.
• Localization of the back-end. The main .post file is under the /languages folder

Changes

• Regular engine rework: Better cross-field keyword, and the the default search logic changed to AND.
• Some redundant or un-used classes removed: wpdreamsBorderradius, wpdreamsBoxShadowMini, wpdreamsCustomContent, wpdreamsCustomTaxonomyTerm, wpdreamsCustomTaxonomyTermSel, wpdreamsDatePicker, wpdreamsFont, wpdreamsFontMini, wpdreamsImageParser, wpdreamsImageSettings, wpdreamsInfo, wpdreamsLabelPosition, wpdreamsOnOff, wpdreamsPageParents, wpdreamsSelect, wpdreamsSelectCategory, wpdreamsSelectTerm, wpdreamsTextareaIsParam, wpdreamsTextShadow, wpdreamsTextShadowMini, wpdreamsUploadReset
• Removed many unused back-end scripts ~1MB
• API methods – using classes instead of ID selectors for better compatibility

Fixes

• The database existence checker method is now case insensitive, as some databases may return a lower case DB via the 'SHOW Tables' query.
• Right mouse button on results in FireFox – it no longer closes the results list.
• Prevented shortcode to be executed on the back-end taxonomy listing pages (not happening in WordPress by default, only if a custom plugin allows shortcode in listings)
• Single quotes and other special characters fixed on keyword exceptions list
• Inline script and CSS contents are better trimmed from the result contents
• Updater: update checks are less frequent, if the remote servers are not responding
• Index Table: Shortcode extraction improvements
• Results container animation fixes
• Google Fonts are now loading correctly as defined under each font setting
• ACF select/radio etc.. field values are now loading correctly within the custom field filters in all cases, even if the plugin shortcode is not executed in post context

New features

• Term meta table search option when searching for taxonomy terms
• Advanced title & Content fields now support additional field variables: {__content}, {__title}, {__image}, {__link} – These variables return the corresponding result field
• 'asp_noajax_results' filter added – executed before passing the non-ajax results to the results page

Changed

• Protocol relative enqueue_scripts & enqueue_styles replaced with the protocol version: Let the Cache/Minify solutions decide to remove/keep the protocol string or not.
• Notification: to enable index table on search instances, when index table first generated

Fixed

• The 'inherit' font option now properly saves and loads
• Taxonomy Term word length query issue fixed
• Elementor plugin compatibility – Fixed an issue with Elementor customized search page, where the override was not working
• Term exclusions now work properly, when a radio/select filter is in use for the same taxonomy
• File attachment thumbnail images are now parsed correctly, if they exist (ex.: PDF images)
