  • Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I use and modify this plugin freely?

    The Data Type is free, open source, and has no restrictions on distribution. The only request is to maintain references to the author (SplatDev).

    Why doesn't Lucene picks up the values?

    The current versions have a bug, and Lucene doesn't pick up the values. This will be fixed in a future version.
