About creating index

The fix on HDS is here:

It is more verbose than necessary. But the idea is simple and fairly easy to implement: before placing a page reference, note the index of the insertionPoint where it (the page reference) should go. Then place it. Then check if it actually landed where it was supposed to. If it didn't, move it. Here's a sample script:

if (app.documents[0].indexes.length == 0) app.documents[0].indexes.add();
addRef ('distribution');
addRef ('information');
function addRef (str){
    var pref, topic = app.documents[0].indexes[0].topics.add(str);
    app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = str;
    var found = app.documents[0].findGrep();
    for (var i = found.length-1; i > -1; i--){
        pref = addPageRef (topic, found.insertionPoints[0]);
        // Do whatever else you want to do with the page reference
    }
}
function addPageRef (topic, ip) {
    var target = ip.index;   // The new page ref should go here
    var pRef = topic.pageReferences.add (ip);  // Add the page ref
    if (Math.abs(pRef.sourceText.index - target) > 0){   // Did it land where it was supposed to?
        try {  // No, it didn't: move it
            ip.parentStory.characters[pRef.sourceText.index].move (LocationOptions.after, ip);
        } catch(_){
        }
    }
    return pref;
}
