Drupal Module: Point Multiple Drupal Sites at One Shared Opensolr Index

· Drupal Module · New Feature · All updates

The Drupal module Settings page now offers two ways to connect a site: create a fresh index in your chosen region, or attach the site to any existing index in your Opensolr account.

01 Attach to an existing index

Attaching reuses an index you already own, which is what multi-site setups need: several Drupal instances feeding one search experience rather than one index each. When you attach, you can optionally reset the data first, and re-configure the schema in one click.
