Release Notes - January 2026

Search plugin configuration updates

Search Studio

We’ve expanded our plugin settings to give you more granular control over how your search looks, feels, and tracks data. Here are the highlights of the latest additions:

• We’ve added an `autoAttach` feature for the comparison bar. It can now automatically appear as soon as a search is submitted, along with a "Show only differences" toggle to help users make faster decisions.
• We've introduced `queryTag` and `userGroup` settings, allowing you to cluster your analytics data and better understand the behavior of specific customer segments.
• New settings like `staticLayout` and `splitIntoClusters` give you the power to maintain a consistent grid layout even when search results are limited.
