Previous Contributions

Utopian Solrizer v0.0.1 - get utopian posts indexed in Solr

v0.0.2 new features

Parameterized solr fields: in this version, Utopian Solrizer defines a default set of Solr fields, in the meantime, user has the flexibility to specify which Utopian fields need to be indexed in Solr.

Batch adding posts efficiently: thanks to Hive account@codingdefined for providing the valuable feedback in my previous contribution. I have implemented a new way to add multiple Utopian posts efficiently.
