Legacy Article

You are viewing an article from our legacy "FastTrack" publication program, made available for informational purposes. Articles in this program were published without a requirement for independent editing or verification and are provided"as is" without guarantee.

Before using any information from this article, independently verify its suitability for your situation and project.

When searching the portal, you may find that search fails to find a piece of content (articles, images, message board, blog posts, etc). This can happen due to multiple reasons:

  1. Content is not indexed when it is added
  2. Index gets out of sync
  3. In case of cluster, the indexes are not replicating

Resolution

In most cases, reindexing will resolve the issue. To reindex, simply navigate to Control Panel -> Server Administration and click on the "Execute" button next to "Reindex all search indexes".

If that does not solve the issue, please open a Help Center ticket and include any relevant information (see Before opening a Search / Indexing ticket)
