Very date-heavy page does not turn up in a date search, or is missing dates from the search index
What you are seeing
A very date-heavy page does not turn up in a date search, or is missing dates from the search index.
#Why it happens
Only the first 200 distinct dates on a page are written to the index.
#What to do
Split very long date-heavy pages, or use a calendar's page sources (which read pages live) rather than the date search.
#Settings involved
Setting | Where | What it does |
|---|---|---|
Base Timezone | Calendar Configuration panel | "Set the timezone by which events are co-ordinated. Note that events are shown in the timezone of the user viewing the calendar." In practice it pre-fills the event create/edit form only. The grid always draws events in |
Pages from search | Calendar Configuration panel → Pages | "Search for pages to include". Every page the search returns is scanned for dates. Filters and limit are disabled until the toggle is on. |
Result Limit | Calendar Configuration panel → Pages from search | How many pages the search source returns and therefore scans for dates. |
#Limits that apply here
Limit | Value | What happens |
|---|---|---|
Pages from search source | - | Dates on pages beyond the limit simply do not appear, with no warning. |
Date search index | - | First date, last date and the mentioned-user list are always recorded; only the list of individual dates is capped. |
Indexed date search results | - | Also skipped entirely until the calendar has reported a real visible date range. |
