Now Magento 1.3 users can see the DID YOU MEAN ___? feature when they rebuild search indexes. This release also fixes a few issues that were present with Magento 1.3 stores.
For developers (and installers), you should note the following:
1. The database usages have changed. Better Store Search now uses bss_index table instead of the extended columns on the catalogsearch_index table like before. This was required to resolve an incompatibility on some Magento 1.3 stores, but also it's a lot nicer : ). I suppose it should have been done from the start...
2. You MUST have the extended catalogsearch_index columns in order to run the update to BSS 2.0.1 or else you might get an error. If you DO get an error, see this knowledge base article: http://www.wdca.ca/support/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=8
For designers, please note the following:
3. With the new Magento 1.3 support we had to move all our design/skin files to the default/default theme. We no longer deploy the base/default files with the release. Magento 1.4 should fall back to default/default before trying to fall back to base/default, however if you have issues please copy the default/default files to your base theme.
4. bss/dym/results.phtml was slightly modified.
Version 2.0.1 of Better Store Search is now available for download/upgrade. If you manually installed the application
