Hi!

Can anybody give a reference for a page indexed and returned as search result which is using view parameters?

I need a real world, definite example including the URL of a search result pointing to such a page.

We're getting crawling activieties on our pages but the pages aren't returned on searches and don't appear in a "site:example.com" Google search.So I just want to be sure it is possible at all.

 

Thanks a lot

HI JT,

yes pages with view parameters are indexable for instance : http://www.google.fr/#hl=fr&safe=off&sa=X&ei=1Ln3TdGDIIuEhQfJoYCSDA&ved=0CB8QBSgA&q=Poploot%3A+une+petite+int%C3%A9gration+eZpublish+%3F&spell=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=62244d830142acb1&biw=1366&bih=653

returns some links on the french eZ Publish planet. Usually those pages are deep so you have to wait quite some times to have them indexed and you have to use a very specific search query.

Cheers

Cool, thanks a lot for the proof that it works...

Did you have or do you know of any difficulties on getting the pages in the index? Are there any special provisions which should or have to be implemented?

Our page is now almost 6 Months online with the current link structure but due to the fact that our products change (out of stock), seasonal (or even daydependant) the result may vary.

But though I don't get, why they are not listed in the results. At least the ones featured on the homepage should be indexed.

 

At least I'm now quite confident it has got nothing to do with the round brackets!

 

Thanks again
