Add list of new or updated pages

Top  Previous  Next

This feature allows you to specify a list of new pages which are to be indexed and added to the existing index.

If you specify a page here which already exists in the index, Zoom will assume that this page has been updated/modified (without checking its file size or last-modified date), and it will remove the old data for this page, and add the new one.

Note: For each use of this function requiring a page update, the index gets larger and less efficient. We recommend performing a full re-index regularly where possible (perhaps once a week, or once a month, depending on how often you perform a partial index). We also recommend using this function with a list of pages that need to be updated in one go, rather than attempting to add pages to be updated one at a time.

 
Pages in the list which are new (ie. not in the existing index) and only needs to be added will not impair the index's performance and compression. Only pages which need to be updated will affect the efficiency and performance of the index.

If you are unable to perform an incremental update, please see "Incremental indexing requirements".

Base URL (Offline mode only)

If you are using this feature in Offline mode, you will need to specify a base URL for the pages to be indexed. This will have the same effect as the base URL you normally need to specify for the start directory (see "Base URL" for more details). Note that all of the pages specified in the list will have the same base URL. If you wish to add pages which will have different base URLs, you will need to add them separately (by repeating this step with the list of pages for the other base URL).
