No pagerank data for listed sites and no results returned for web search

[aljoe817]

Hi,

Having a bit of a problem getting pagerank data for listed sites in the directory. I changed the block_pagerank_stat minimum_pr="5" to
block_pagerank_stat minimum_pr="0" and still not showing any data. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Also, there are no search results returned when doing a web search from the global search bar. I have applied and have gotten an AJAX search API key from Google,added the key to the setup panel in admin but still no results. Need some help here as well. Thanks for any and all responses.

My site url is NicheOrganics.com.

As has been written at least a dozen times on the forum here. It is the SOAP search API key that you need. Google no longer gives these out so the "search on the web" function is useless without that key.

As for the pagerank data Make sure your database is correct.

link_id, rank, engine and last_update should all be set as follows
Null No

link_id and rank should be set as follows
Default 0

last_update should be set as follows
Default 0000-00-00

Engine should be set as follows
Default (leave blank)

Check those, and also if you modified the pagerank blocks that you upload the originals.

Hi,

I checked the database and they are set as you have shown. I don't know what else to do. Should I truncate the pagerank data and start over? I also uploaded the original pagerank blocks to the server. No change.

As for the "search on the web function" ,I changed it so that it returns a search of the entire directory and not the web.

Thanks.

There should be nothing to truncate, but feel free to do so if you know what you're doing. There have been users who have truncated their entire database, thus the warning.
