http://tiki.org/forumthread47305Question

"So should we have a new pref "unified_index" and add it as dependency for these features (PluginList, PluginListExecute, etc.), and thus people whose servers don't work with it have the option to turn them off? (effectively acting like a Tiki6)"


Solution

The plugins that depend on unified search index has dependencies now. As for the splitting up feature_search, I think there is no need, since it is just a feature naming thing, no problem caused. Better not go changing feature name in case something breaks. What is the possiblity someone wants the unified search index but not want tiki-searchindex.php? Besides it is hard to split up because some of the features could call tiki-searchindex.php as the front-end to the unified search.

@Nelson: well, if we go the route that Unified Index is always on, not optional, then no need for a pref for this. But until now, we have issues because on some sites, both searches are off, and there are issues with indexing and the admin has no way of knowing what is happening. Having Unified Index as a feature/pref would make it possible to see what depends on it. See: Search Dilemma
