Hi,

Someone recently posted about being frustrated by bad search results here on the BB. For some reason, posts that you would expect to find in search results are not listed.

I have asked Groupee to reindex the BB pages for search, and I'm already seeing improved search results.

You can help me by letting me know whenever you experience problems with search results. I can then ask Groupee to reindex to solve the problem.

Thanks,
Chris

Excellent! Did they explain how/why it became/was "un" indexed?

Thanks,

Bill

Well, I think what's supposed to happen is that today's posts get indexed tonight and are supposed to show up in search results tomorrow. Sometimes that indexing doesn't happen and those posts get left out of search results. Over the course of several month, this can happen numerous times and you end up with a significant number of posts not showing up in search results. So they reindex the whole thing and you're good to go...for a while. Smiler

Knowing what I know now, I may make this a regular request every 3 months or so.

Regards,
Chris
