We're using the Typesense plugin to power the search on our website. It created - and pushes to -

post

,

video

, and

podcast

collections in line with our custom post types. I need to query these as a single collection from our API to return search results across all three categories. I've been trying out the "federated search" feature, and while the searching aspect works correctly, the pagination does not. If I request 10 results per page and navigate to page 2, I get the second 10 results from each category rather than a second page of unified results as I would hoped for. Obviously I can merge these on the client side but it quickly gets complicated if, say, the 30th page is requested. I found a pull request https://github.com/typesense/typesense/pull/2051 that looks promising. Am I correct in understanding that this will address our problem? Thanks!

Yup, the union feature addresses what you're asking for and it's already available in v28.0.rc36. If you upgrade to this build, you can start using it already

Thanks Jason, that's great news. Do you have an approximate ETA of when v28 might be released?

Probably in a week or two. Down to one last issue. But we have users already using 28.0.rc36 in production, so it's safe to use

Amazing, thanks again for getting back to me so quickly.
