  • Does upgrade require new search widgets?

    Hi Guys,

    I'm currently using Zoom Search Version 5.1 and would like to upgrade to Version 6.0. Will an upgrade require re-building search boxes and search results pages?

    I manage a few PHP sites using Version 5.1, but the implementations are all very similar. Here is an example:

    Also, would Version 5.1 configuration files be compatible with Version 6.0?

    Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    No changes are necessary when upgrading from V5.1 to V6. The search boxes, search results template, and the configuration files are all backwards compatible.

    But if you make changes to the configuration file in V6 (or a change is necessary due to extra default features - and you resave the file), it cannot be opened again in the older V5 indexer.
