View forum posts 4.1.12

If I run it manually there are no errors, no indication in the task manager log that it ran, and no update to the "view forum posts".

This file exists on your site - /includes/cron/queueprocessor.php ?

I just clicked the search link in the first post and I am getting results of posts from today. So, why are you thinking it isn't working?

[John Lester]

Yep just looked again and the file is there. Some of my members are complaining that when they use that feature to find posts by someone it's not returning the most recent results. In some cases the results are weeks old even though the person being searched has posted either the day before the the day of the search. When I check the member being searched, often I will not get recent posts either. So something's out of whack I just haven't narrowed it down yet.

I don't quite understand the purpose of queueprocessor.php ... is it supposed to be only 2K (file size)? Mine looks complete but sure looks like it doesn't do anything, but I am a complete noob when it comes to vB's code

Do all your forums have Index New Posts in Search Engine set to Yes? If it is set to No, then no posts in that forum will be indexed and thus they will not show up in ANY search.

[John Lester]

All forums were set to yes and one category was set to no. I switched to category to yes and will see if that has any effect. Another note to mention ... the scheduled task "Search Queue Update" doesn't show up in the log for my super admin account either. Which sucks I was hoping maybe I didn't give my normal admin account the proper permissions but it looks like that's not the issue

[Lynne]

I just looked on my test site and nothing gets logged when the Search Queue Update job gets run. I think it's because of the way it's coded (I don't see it having the log_cron_action code at the end).

[John Lester]

Well that makes sense Thanks Lynne for looking into that part

[John Lester]

I have yet to resolve this issue and have been getting more complaints. To summarize:

Clicking on a members profile and then clicking on "view forum posts" doesn't return all of the users posts. It seems to randomly select either really old posts, or only new posts.

Using advanced search to look up a users posts only returns 150 or so results, no matter how many posts they've made.

There are multiple pages shown for members with lots of posts when a search of their posts is done. However the last 4 or 5 always return a "no results" error when navigating to them either by clicking on the page, or clicking the arrow until the page is reached.

I have gone through this thread and repeated the creation of the task mentioned by Lynne with no success

Anyone have any ideas?

[Lynne]

First off, are ALL the forums in the Forum Manager set to Index New Posts in Search Engine (if you change that, you MUST go to Maintenance > General Update Tools and Rebuild your search index). Actually, I would suggest Rebuilding your search index to see if that fixes the issue.

When you click to view the users posts, you will ONLY get the number of results set in AdminCP > Settings > Options > Searching Options > Maximum Search Results to Return . If that is set to 150 and a user has 1000 posts, you will only get 150 returned.

[John Lester]

Yes all of the forums (and categories) are set to index new posts. Did that last time I brought this up. Max search results to return was bumped from 10K to 30K (nobody currently has more than 23K posts) back then as well.

It's a little frustrating to have this happen, as a lot of good information is almost impossible to find now. I'll be upgrading the forum in the summer after classes and hopefully that fixes the issue.
