Search Anomalies

I'll look in the morning but try this meantime. In one topic enter a term such as redzebra in the title of one topic and in the body of another. Generate and see what happens in the search.

Thanks for the reply Peter, I do not think this is the issue, I have been assured the topics are getting generated. 

Perhaps rather than trying to describe the problem with my limited understanding it would be easier to show it. Note the differing results in the links below when searching the string of text "Court-Ordered Obligations" (without the quotations)

This is the old system with the desired search functionality:

https://staging.pdp.albany.edu/RoboHelp/CCFS/CCFS_LR/newproject.htm

And this is the newer one where the searches are not returned as desired:

http://robohelp.pdp.albany.edu/CCFS-LR/index.htm#t=Overview_of_CCFS_CCFS2.htm  

Though in both cases the same help entry exists (You could navigate to it through the Table o Contents by following the path Home > Safety Assessments > Interviewer: Respond to a Safety Assessment > Enter Interview Results > Court-Ordered Obligations

Does this help clarify the problem?

I assume you mean 2019 New UI.

I just tried the RoboHelp Reimagined sample project using the frameless Orange skin and the responsive Azure Blue skin. As soon as I typed "bit" the predictive search gave me Bits and Pieces and if I ignored that and just pressed Enter, I got the correct result.

When I first saw your post I was surprised as by now someone else would have reported this. Then it occurred to me I wonder if you are aware of the difference in how the output content is created.

• In Classic you had to specifically exclude topics from a build.
• In 2019 you have to specifically include topics.

Is it possible the topic you are searching for is not getting generated? Check in the output folder.

If it is not there, look in the RoboHelp Reimagined sample project where this is all explained. Basically you have to include everything in the TOC. For items you don't want the user to see in the TOC but do want in the build, you tick the Hide in Output check box.

Let us know if that is the answer. If not we'll dig deeper.
