WPML ElasticPress

• ElasticPress: the terminal sync fills the index of every active language, including languages hidden from visitors

• WPML ElasticPress now ships from WPML's main repository and updates through the standard WPML channel. No functional changes from 5.0.0.

WPML ElasticPress now shares the WPML 5.0 version number and needs WPML 5.0 or newer to run.

Running WPML ElasticPress with WPML 5.0

• The version moves from 2.1.0 to 5.0.0, so every WPML component now carries the same major version.
• WPML 5.0.0 or newer is required, and on an older WPML the plugin does not load.

Searching and indexing

• Clearing all indices now deletes only the indices of the current site, not those of other sites in the network.
• Syncing a single post no longer checks whether the index exists first.
• Fixed an error when the language ids were not ready before they were propagated to the index.
• The search language is validated when the query runs, and admin requests go through a request policy.

• Added support for the ElasticPress documents feature.

• Fix: better management of sites indices in Health stats.
• Fix: cache cluster indices for better performance.
• Fix: unsync documents when moved to a non indexable stati.
• Fix: adjust undefined variables.

• Fix: compatibility with ElasticPress 5.0.0

• Fix: compatibility with stopwords analyzers on ElasticPress 4.7.0 or newer.
• Fix: error when deleting and trashing posts on PHP 8.0 or newer.

• Fix: plugin package might miss a parent directory, or might have a wrongly named one.

• Feature: analyze and sync content in its own language.
• Feature: use a different index per type of content, per language.
• Chore: update the CLI command to sync instead of the deprecated index.
• Fix: analyze language fields as comma-separated lists of keywords.
• Fix: include non-translatable posts in non-default post language indices.
