===== Hints and tips =====
==== Regenerate the search index ====
You may need to regenerate the search index, for example after a migration. There is a command line for that : indexer.php.\\
To use it, you need the cli of php (package php5-cli).

<code>
/opt/dokuwiki/bin# su www-data
/opt/dokuwiki/bin$ php indexer.php
Searching pages... 96 pages found.
cuisine:caramelbeurresale... done.
cuisine:crepes... done.
cuisine:start... done.
cuisine:tatin... done.
...
/opt/dokuwiki/bin$ exit
exit
/opt/dokuwiki/bin#
</code>

==== Create the sitemap ====
The Sitemap index is read by Google to index the website.

To enable it, you need to change the "sitemap" option to 1

The sitemap file is available with the path /wiki/doku.php?do=sitemap, example : http://www.bouthors.fr/wiki/doku.php?do=sitemap.
