New appliance updates are available: texisScripts-7.0.1 and applianceman-7.0.1. This upgrades to version 7 of the Appliance, which includes:
Faster Category Searching: A new setting to improve category search speed when categories are distinct/non-overlapping (i.e., when no URL belongs to more than one category.)
Enhanced Federated Search (Thunderstone Meta Search): Search users can now select which back-end profiles to actually search, from a list configured by their Appliance administrator.
Character Match Mode: Non-English/Unicode character support is improved with this setting, which not only allows case-insensitive searching of foreign characters but also enables ignore-accents ("e" matches "é"), ligature expansion ("oe" matches "") and more.
Language Analysis Module: An optional feature for Appliance owners who pay to have it activated, this setting improves CJK (Chinese/Japanese/Korean) searches with extra processing to put spaces between words so they can be found without wildcards when adjacent to others.
MySQL in DB Walker: Added support for crawling MySQL databases to DB Walker.
Updated "Look and Feel": The administrative interface now employs Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) for more modern HTML usage.
These updates are availabled via the Maintenance -> Check for Updates menu.
