de-register link missing | search not finding a keyword

Submitted by haggle on Mon, 2010-05-31 13:11.

(1) My Pricetapstry installation doesn't seem to have the de-register link for feeds in Admin?

(2) I have a product with the following title "Ondine Reflections IV blue" but it will not come up in search results for the word "blue".
With your holiday I actually had a chance to learn the script a little and was able to do "nofollow" by myself :)
I am testing and learning and wouldn't mind knowing why this search doesn't come up and what I did wrong?
I dont have to give any 777 permissions for this script?

When I am in admin using the Product Finder the search works with no problems.

Hi,

Thanks for the follow up - I see that you have resolved the de-register issue.

Regarding a search for "blue" returning no results; I did just go to check your site but received a "Currently down for maintenance" message; however the normal cause for this kind of scenario - where Product Finder does find the product - particularly during testing is that the word has been deemed too common to be included in the Full Text index. By default, the Full Text index is the preferred search method if all terms in the query are 4 or more characters in length, but often when testing with only a few products certain words would be excluded.

If that sounds like it could be the case, what I would suggest is that during testing, disable the Full Text index by editing line 8 of config.advanced.php a follows:

  $config_useFullText = FALSE;

Hope this helps,

Cheers,
David.

I also can't seem to find the de-register link. Can you tell me where can I find it?

Hi,

De-register only appears when a feed has been deleted - so the procedure for removing a merchant is 1) delete the feed from feeds/, 2) Browse to admin/ and then click De-register alongside the removed feed filename...

Cheers,
David.
