Known issues for Acquia Search on Drupal 9 or later

The Search API module can’t display result snippets

The Search API module can’t display result snippets—the full node output displays as the search result.

Workaround: Create a Search result view mode to output something smaller than the full node. To add the workaround, complete the following steps:

  1. Go to Structure > Content types > Article > Manage display.

  2. In the Custom display settings section, select the Search result highlighting input checkbox.

  3. Click Save.

  4. Go to Structure > Content types > Article > Manage display > Search result highlighting input. The following settings control each search result’s output.

  5. To display result snippets, edit the appropriate field. For example, to make the Body field display result snippets, complete the following steps:

    1. In Format, click Trimmed.

    2. Click the gear icon. The webpage displays the Trimmed limit field.

    3. In the Trimmed limit field, enter 200 to trim the body field to 200 characters.

    4. Click Update.

You have now configured the Body field to display trimmed output as the search result.

Non-SQL query plugins for Views cause PHP errors

For more information about this issue, see Views problems with non-SQL query plugins on Drupal.org.

Views exposed filters must not be cached

Views exposed filters, such as search results and blocks with facets, must not have caching enabled alongside AJAX. For more information, see Ajax facet block seems to lose views context on Drupal.org.

Content types are unintentionally indexed

Acquia Search indexes content types, when that is not the intended behavior.

Workaround: Add a content type filter to an Acquia Search view.
