Question

Has 4.2 changed anything that would impact the first example given under Ready to use Search on InstantEnhancements? Using the example on my own TWiki (4.2) seems to omit some hits. Using the same example here on TWiki.org seems to include all the hits I would expect. I first suspected that the missing hits on my own TWiki were ones edited after a recent move to a new server and upgrade to 4.2. But that turns out to not be the case. The returned hits are a mix of "old" and "new" topics. But many topics I have recently created and edited are not returned.

Update: I've found that actually, the Search itself seems to not be returning all the right hits on my TWiki. Even the LeftBar My Activities link doesn't return all the hits. That link is

   * [[%SCRIPTURL{search}%/%BASEWEB%/?search=DavidWolfe;order=modified;limit=50;reverse=on][My %BASEWEB% activities]]

When I click the link, the search results page is definately not showing all the topics I've recently created or edited. The odd thing is that it does show some of them. There should be no username issue because my TWiki requires login for all scripts and I'm always logged in as the same user. If I visit a topic I've recently created I can see my username at the top of the topic. Yet that topic does not show up as a hit on a search for my username.
