3.2.0 - 2024-12-18

Prior to updating, please read: this release of ClassifAI rearchitects how the settings pages are built, from a standard PHP approach to using React components. If you've created custom Features or Providers or added your own custom settings, you'll need to update your code to work in this new structure. See our documentation for examples.

Also note that this release bumps the WordPress minimum from 6.1 to 6.5.

Changed

• Update from the text-embedding-ada-002 to the text-embedding-3-small model for the OpenAI Embeddings Provider. Note this requires regenerating all existing embeddings for comparisons to work properly. Also worth mentioning you'll want to check your threshold settings to ensure that works well with these changes, as we're seeing lower threshold scores with this new model (props @dkotter, @iamdharmesh via #758).
