Upgrading from Low Search
In the ExpressionEngine v7.0.0 release, Pro Search was added added as a native add-on that ships with the core files. It is an update of the standalone add-on Low Search. If you previously had Low Search installed, the update will automatically install Pro Search and uninstall Low Search. The transition should be automatic and seamless, and old Low Search tags will continue to function.
However, best practice in this situation requires 2 additional steps:
- Remove the old add-on folder system/user/addons/low_search.
- Replace the old format
{exp:low_search:tags with new{exp:pro_search:. This can be done with the Find and Replace utility found inTools - Utilities - Search and Replace. It is recommended that you save a database back before making this change. Then simply search for{exp:low_search:and replace with{exp:pro_search:.
