Thanks for any help.

Hi @martine-otter1

Please try to update to 2.46.180 that is just released. It should help.

@epsilonadmin
Thanks, but it's always the same with the new version

The search is OK but the status is always awaiting.

@EpsilonAdmin
OK, I see, it's 2.46.178 and not 2.46.180
I will try...

[EpsilonAdmin]

@martine-otter1 Yes, 2.46.180 has a sufficient fix for this.

@epsilonadmin

Index is now OK and status Active

@epsilonadmin I'm using the free last version 1.44.134 and the problem remains. Also the estimated time left is always "--:--:--" (see the image attached)

Hi @davide-merlitti

Please could you check the browser's debugger - if there any errors in the console or Network tab?

[Davide Merlitti]

@epsilonadmin I checked the browser's console and there are no errors.
The following are some ajax requests and relative responses where you can see some progress (n_pending from 8 to 6) but I started a rebuild at 10am and it's still running at 20pm:

[["vr","status",{"n_inindex":1201,"n_actual":1193,"n_pending":8,"nw_act":0,"nw_total":0,"tsd":1626285118,"is_cached":true,"is_pause":"0","enabled":1,"index_ready":0,"autoreindex":1,"est_time":"--:--:--","ts":1626285269,"is_inx_outdated":0,"is_inx_notrun":0}],["vr","postdata",[]],["vr","code",0]]

[["vr","status",{"n_inindex":1201,"n_actual":1195,"n_pending":6,"nw_act":0,"nw_total":0,"tsd":1626285429,"is_cached":true,"is_pause":"0","enabled":1,"index_ready":0,"autoreindex":1,"est_time":"--:--:--","ts":1626285588,"is_inx_outdated":0,"is_inx_notrun":0}],["vr","postdata",[]],["vr","code",0]]

Hi @davide-merlitti

It happens because you have problems with wp-cron tasks or DNS configuration.

If you have your website hosted locally, often the domain name is just recorded in /etc/hosts file. This is normally okay for browser access (and this is why indexing is coming well but slow when your WP admin is open). But PHP can not read /etc/hosts by some reason and thus indexing procedure can not go internally.

Please read this solution and try it.

Please let me know if it helps or not.

Thanks!
