 With EXT:solr 11.5 we provide the support of TYPO3 11 LTS.
 
+Please note that we require at least TYPO3 11.5.14, as this version contains some change concerning the usage of local TypoScriptFrontendController objects that are solving some issues during indexing.

 Bootstrap 5.1
 -------------
@@ -30,6 +32,16 @@ The default templates provided by EXT:solr were adapted for Bootstrap 5.1.
 
 The templates are also prepared to display some icons with Bootstrap Icons, but the usage is optional and the icons are no longer provided with EXT:solr as the former Glyphicons were.
 
+
+Custom field processors
+-----------------------
+
+fieldProcessingInstructions can be used for processing values during indexing, e.g. timestampToIsoDate or uppercase. Now you can register and use your own field processors via:
+$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTCONF']['solr']['fieldProcessor']['yourFieldProcessor'] = ACustomFieldProcessor::class;
+
+Custom processors have to implement interface ApacheSolrForTypo3\Solr\FieldProcessor\FieldProcessor.
