  • Bug in RCI ongoing search

    I set up several searches back when RCI offered them for free. Since
    then, I have not had a hit on anything. Yet I have seen weeks
    available by doing a manual search for the exact criteria.

    I called tech support today because I noticed something really weird with my
    searches. I saw a unit online that should have matched a search. I went into my search to see if the criteria was correct- it appeared to be. Within the search, I clicked to search on the criteria and it said nothing was available. I went back to the manual search and it was still there.

    When I spoke to the gal in tech support she had no explanation, but
    admitted something was definitely wrong. She escalated it to a
    supervisor and they looked into it. I heard back from her less than an hour later (amazing!) to say there is a known bug with some ongoing searches started in the spring. She did not know the specific time frame, but she reentered my searches, backdating them to the original entry date, and now they are working. Unfortunately, I don't how you can determine if yours is broken. The only reason I knew mine were not working was because I saw a unit doing a manual search.

    So RCI knows there is a bug - and now you do too.

    One easy way to diagnose it. Modify your search to include something that is actually in the space bank. See if it hits. If so, it *should* be fine. If not, it might not be.

    (This might also have the side-effect of "resetting" any "broken" search, which is good too.)

      You are right, that may be a way to diagnose it. But I don't think it will reset it - I have modified these searches several times since they were originally set up and they stayed broken.
