We have updated lesson titles across multiple courses; however, the Search function is not reflecting these changes. In cases where titles were significantly revised, affected lessons are not appearing in search results at all.

I have had a support ticket open regarding this matter for four months without resolution. Given the direct impact on the student experience, I wanted to reach out to the community:

  • Has anyone else encountered this search indexing issue?
  • Have any workarounds been identified that could restore search functionality in the interim?

Hi ​@danamccarthy, we have not run into this issue. Our lesson names are correct and searchable. We have 177 published courses, so probably ~700 or so lesson titles. Do you have a lot more than that? I wonder why they are not updating. I assume the lesson titles are also actually updated in the published courses, right? 

Hi ​@sam.walker,

Thanks for the response.  The lesson names appear as intended in the published course.  The issue is only with how they appear in search results.

​@danamccarthy weird, I have not seen this behavior.

A left-field and very manual thing to try would be unpublishing and republishing your courses. You might also try publishing to a different URL. I feel like that might force a re-indexing for search, but it’s just a hunch and obviously might not be a great solution.

That’s the only idea I had.

Good luck getting it resolved!
