That's almost certainly an indexing issue. The record is in the database, but 
has somehow ended up either not in the index or the index has gone off the 
rails.
You should probably recreate your indexes:

In July I added an accession record to ArchivesSpace and added instances to it. 
 I looked at that accession record on several occasions after that.


Two weeks ago I looked at our ArchivesSpace accession records to gather 
statistics for our annual report and discovered that the accession record 
mentioned above no longer displayed in accessions browse view and was not 
returned as a search result when searched for.  The linked instances do still 
show up in search results, but the system says they are not linked to any other 
records.


If I try to add a new accession to the system with the same ID number it tells 
me it cannot add the record because that identifier is already in use.  I have 
confirmed that the original accession is still listed in the accessions table 
in the backend database.


Does anyone have thoughts as to why this record was showing up in the staff 
interface but now is not?  I have not run into this issue with any other 
records of any kind.  The indexer appears to be working; changes we make- 
deletions and additions-  are showing up in the staff interface.

Do you have an example of the update you'd like to make? Can you send an
example of the code you're using to update the resource, as well as the
error you're receiving?

[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Search engine optimization for the ASpace PUI?

2017-10-09 Thread Jordon Steele 
Hi all,



Since adopting the PUI, we have noticed that our search engine rankings for our 
finding aids have fallen substantially. I'm curious if anyone who has 
experienced something similar can share any steps they took to improve these 
rankings. It's unclear to us at present if this is a function of the PUI code 
base or not. I saw a bunch of tickets about search issues within the 
application, nothing on SEO, though (forgive me if I overlooked something).



Thanks in advance!


Best,

Jordon
