Hi. One of my games, Last Cats, was published about 60 days ago and was previously indexed and searchable on itch.io:
https://flingeris.itch.io/lastcats
This is also confirmed by analytics: the game still has visits from itch.io search and tag pages over the past 30 days, which shows that it had been searchable before.
However, while checking my pages recently, I noticed that it no longer appears in Search. This is the part that concerns me the most, because it does not look like a new-page indexing delay - an already indexed project has disappeared from search.
I also have a newer project, Gravebell, which does not appear to be indexed either:
https://flingeris.itch.io/gravebell
I’ve read the itch.io documentation about getting indexed, but I still have a question because my situation is different from a normal delay for a new project.
For context, I had a similar indexing issue on this same account with my first project. That project was eventually indexed manually after some time, and after that my later projects started appearing in search normally and almost immediately. Because of that, I assumed the issue had been resolved, but now something seems to be wrong again.
I checked the basic indexing requirements from the docs: the projects are public, have cover images, are playable/downloadable, and I am not intentionally using any unlisted/search-hidden settings.
Publish status:
I have already contacted support about this (Support ticket ID: 361019), but haven’t received a response yet. Please let me know if there is anything I can do on my side to help resolve this issue.
