Automated triage: Not a bug

Thank you for reporting this issue. Enhanced Search offers a fixed set of stop-word and stemming languages, and Serbian isn't one of them. Adding it would be a new feature rather than a bug fix, so please post it in the suggestions forum, where it can be considered for a future version.

This is an automated assessment. A member of staff may review and update it.

The languages in the "Stop words" and "Word stemming" options of Enhanced Search are taken from Elasticsearch. They match the languages Elasticsearch had in versions 6.4 to 7.0.

Elasticsearch added Serbian in version 8.12, but these options were never updated to include it:

A set of analyzers aimed at analyzing specific language text. The following types are supported: arabic, armenian, basque, bengali, brazilian, bulgarian, catalan, cjk, czech, danish, dutch, english, estonian, finnish, french, galician, german, greek, hindi, hungarian, indonesian, irish, italian, latvian, lithuanian, norwegian, persian, portuguese, romanian, russian, serbian, sorani, spanish, swedish, turkish, thai.

Unless I am mistaken, xenForo uses a 7.x revision of Elasticsearch - so it would still be a feature request to update Elasticsearch.

We support ES > 7 so if it's something we can support for those users we will. I corrected the triage to confirmed.
