For some reason no projects with Ids over 970 million are appearing on trending; in fact, very few are even appearing in Scratch's search. I have checked all the projects in explore, even recent, and NONE seem to have ids of over 970 million. This is obviously a very major bug if it is real. So is there really such an issue? Or is it just me?

I think you can fix it by putting each words in the title in a separated tag. Here's an example :

My title is : I love potatoes
So I'll add the tags : #i #love #potatoes
Note : don't forget to transform the uppercases letters into lowercases ones when writing the tags.

I've tried that, it doesn't seem to work

I've found that the only real way to avoid this is to use any 960,000,000 projects you still have that you haven't shared or completed. You can create a copy of the project if you want to save the contents of it. Since the ID is older, it is able to get indexed by the system. I tried it and my project got indexed in around a day. Hope it helps!

Well it worked for me, maybe retry now, servers where able to find the tags now.

Hmm, ok, I'll try that, thanks

Is this fixed yet? It is very hard for new users to get seen if their projects don't even show up in the search

It doesn't seem like it. Not even the Explore “Recent” filter shows projects above 970000000 (though it does show projects below 970m shared after the IDs passed it), even though I'd bet there are lofs of people creating projects then immediately sharing them.

true

People seem to say that this isn't working for them. But my project Square head platformer ( https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1018359258/ ) Seems to work fine. Maybe, try re posting your project and then adding the hashtags?

Sorry if this is confusing, its my first forum post

Projects with IDs above 1 billion will show up in search results, but projects with IDs between 970,629,709 and 1 billion still won't show up; try searching for “Dancing ballarena” by @hdaghi.

I recommend using this project to check what projects can show up right now: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/621500509

That project hasn't been updated in a while…
And I thought the indexer bug was fixed.

DOOMED! For many projects.

Is this bug fixed yet?
i don't have any projects under 970 million I don't think

The indexer was set to a position of one billion project IDs no earlier than June 7th., Projects with IDs between 970629709 and 1000000000 inclusive are still not indexed.

Closing as resolved.

The post above seems to indicate that it is not resolved.

It would be helpful if folks stated their sources for their information.

Oh great. That means my best project won't appear on the trending page.
(very cool unintended feature scratch)
