No permission to buy ($69.99)
This is a minor release, that changes the way the add-on is using some of our shared PHP classes. From now on, the add-on will require a core library package from https://xenforo.com/community/resources/al-core-package.7382/ to be installed. Please download the package and install it before upgrading the add-on. Please upgrade all other AddonsLab add-ons you are using to their latest versions if you see an error in the Admin Panel about files with unexpected content.

The version implements an additional filter - "Discussion status", allowing to filter the threads based on their locked/unlocked status. A new option is added to allow the admins to decide which additional filters should be enabled (Locked/Unlocked status is the only choice for now) and decide where exactly these fields should appear in the form.

Another enhancement in this version is the ability to hide the prefix filter from the form, as an additional option for the setting "Disable default filter fields".

Hello everyone,

we are planning a major update of the product, that will include a new type of custom fields - Location and related tools. This custom field type will allow entering location-related information, optionally allowing to choose the country, state (if applicable), city, zip code, street address. This information will be stored in the database, and filters will allow searching/filtering by this information. Filter form will allow finding any items within X km/miles from a given address.

The update will also include other, less significant enhancements - filter threads by their open/locked status, filter by multiple prefixes, etc. If you have any suggestions for this major update please let us know.

The release will be made first for Thread Filter, but will later be rolled to be available for all other Filter add-ons we have developed.

The price for this add-on and other filter add-ons will be changed to 59.99 USD with 40 USD branding removal fee. The change applies to new purchases only, nothing changes for existing services.

Thank you!
The version fixes a PHP error caused by Elasticsearch 2.x incompatibility. Your installation is not affected by the issue if filtering brings any results with ES enabled. We have also implemented a new option to set Cache TTL controlling how long the results of the search should be cached in the MySQL database. Setting the option to 0 will disable the cache. The option should be used only to troubleshoot issues that could be caused by invalid cache.

Due to a limitation on how many items are returned by the initial search based on keywords (200 by default), their further filtering by category and custom fields could end up with a missing or incomplete list of found items. The issue is fixed now by raising the limit based on the option "Maximum result count" (10000 by default).

The release fixes a bug with sorting by numeric fields. Threads with blank numeric fields will be excluded from result list instead of being listed on top when sorting the results in ascending order.

To apply the fix for all existing threads please run Admin Panel -> Tools -> Rebuild Caches -> Rebuild Thread Fields
