Re: Search not returning correct link to matching page

I was searching for "Unleash" without the quotes in the search field on www.mojoportal.com and in the results that get returned they link to the wrong page.  One of the first in the list should return a link to the matching text it found in Forums but it's link is to the Home page.  I have been mostly using IE when entering posts on the forum.  I haven't tested with FireFox to see if the problem is on the client or server side.

I was noticing some problems on one of my sites with the search module as well.  Is there a way to have it rebuild the index?

Re: Search not returning correct link to matching page

Hmm, you're right. The search result came from the Forums but the page returned is the Home page. I'll review the index generation code this weekend and see what I can find.

It is possible to rebuild the index by deleting the index files from the Data/Sites/[SiteID]/index folder
Then try a search and it will re-create the index. Depending on how much content your site has this could take a few minutes, it gets kicked off on another thread so you don't really get an indicator when it finishes.

Re: Search not returning correct link to matching page

I think I have this fixed now in svn.

I'll know better when I update this site with the code from svn and then rebuild the index. I don't want to do that right now because I'm getting a lot of traffic today due to the release and it would require restarting apache. Probably do it sunday morning.
