Deleted/Purged pages still show up in search

Deleted user April 25, 2018

Confluence 5.8.4 - Deleted pages still show up in search

1. Purged the page from the trash - still showing it in search

2. Not sure from the support articles if rebuilding the index will solve the problem. Is this the recommended approach?

Any other thoughts - Thanks

Hello, 

 

you should indeed rebuild the index, this will solve your search issue as you guessed it :)

 

Cheers,

Just tested on 6.6.1, seems the search results don't pick up deleted pages fairly quickly.

Tested: I created a test page, searched for it on global search (found it), deleted the page, searched again, nothing showed. *This was all within 2 minutes*

Would be interesting to see if your contents are still searchable tomorrow (without indexing).
