| More recent versions of VuFind determine formats using a getFormat function found in [[https://github.com/vufind-org/vufind/blob/master/import/index_java/src/org/vufind/index/FormatCalculator.java|FormatCalculator.java]]. You can override this file in your [[configuration:local_settings_directory|local settings directory]] to adjust the behavior. | VuFind 6.0 replaces the getFormat method with getFormats (to return multiple values when appropriate). The advice below for VuFind 4.0 and newer remains relevant; just be sure to override the appropriate method. |

However, the logic used by getFormat is also replicated in a BeanShell script packaged with VuFind.

Be sure to adjust the package declaration at the top of the file to match the directory path you created, so you can differentiate your local indexing class from the core one.
