Merged Help on searching last published project

Using RoboHelp 2015, I have a merged project containing two child projects. The search results only reflect the last child project that was published. I have 3 other help systems that I maintain that all merged projects with the same set-up but this issue does not exist. Responsive HTML5

With responsive, always generate the parent and then all of the children.

Try that and let us know if it is then OK.

We publish the parent project to the web server and then publish the child projects to their respective folders within the "mergedprojects" folder on the web server. We have used this method successfully with responsive design with 3 other merged projects that have 8 or more child projects and no issues over a significant period of time. The current project has 2 child projects. If I publish the parent, it will only search the parent, then when we publish a child it will only search that child.

I have checked all the publishing settings in relation to the other working projects and everything is the same.

I think you will agree something has to be different if you have it working in some all other merges, finding it is the issue.

You are using the term publishing so I would like to check to do mean publishing rather than generating. Is that the case?

Is this rogue merge something you can share with me? If it is, see the Contact page on my site and send the project as instructed there. Do make sure you include a link to this thread and please do not email the project direct.
