Opensolr Changelog

The Optimize button in Index Tools is now smarter. It detects whether an optimization is already running and shows you live index stats — segments, index size, document count, and deleted docs — every time you click it. If an optimization is in progress, it shows the current status instead of accidentally starting a second one. No more guessing or clicking Check Progress repeatedly.

New Schedule Optimize feature in Index Tools. You can now set your Solr index to automatically optimize on a recurring schedule — pick any interval from 2 to 365 days, and Opensolr handles the rest with a server-side cron job. A single toggle button lets you start or stop the schedule at any time, and shows your current interval at a glance.

Default worker count increased from 3 to 10 and default batch size from 100 to 200 items per worker, delivering significantly faster indexing out of the box on modern servers.

Background mode is now the default — drush ost automatically runs as a background daemon that survives SSH disconnection. No need to add --background anymore. Use --no-background if you want foreground/interactive mode.

Per-server and per-index stop control — use drush osstop --server=my_server to stop only one indexer while others continue running. You can also stop a specific index session with --index without affecting anything else.

Multi-instance parallel indexing — you can now run multiple indexers simultaneously on different Solr servers or indexes. Each session is fully isolated with its own log files, PID tracking, and worker processes, so indexing production and staging at the same time is now fully supported.

New Search button added next to the server filter dropdown on the My Solr Indexes page — tap or click to search without needing to press Enter, making it easier to filter your indexes especially on mobile and tablet.

Search on the My Solr Indexes page now works reliably on mobile devices — the search bar uses native form submission so the Go, Search, and Done buttons on any mobile keyboard (Gboard, SwiftKey, iOS, Samsung) all trigger the search correctly.

The Indexes and Clusters list now remembers your search filter in the URL — bookmark or share a filtered view of your indexes, especially useful when managing a large number of indexes.

Reload, Reset, Commit, and Restart actions now run via AJAX with an elegant modal dialog showing a loading spinner and result status, instead of navigating away from the page

Merged Delete By Query and Utilities into a single unified Index Tools panel with a cleaner design

Available Backup Files and Restore Actions Log now display side by side for easier overview

Redesigned Backup Manager with styled action buttons, emoji icons, and cleaner layout

Upload notes are now hidden by default behind an info button in the section header, reducing visual clutter

Redesigned Config Files Manager with a cleaner panel layout, styled file selector, and a + toggle button to reveal the new file form inline
