Site search by game name doesn't show all active streams

API
1

Hello,

A few weeks one of our streams stopped showing in the search list when I search by game. I can confirm on our end that nothing has changed with the way we are streaming.

Here is the stream:
“http://www.twitch.tv/touchfactor1”

Here is the search: Notice that TouchFish 1 does not appear in the list:
“http://www.twitch.tv/search?query=touchfish#stq=touchfish&stp=1”

Any ideas on what to do next? This test case is consistent and hasn’t changed for weeks.

Thanks,
~C

I’m not particularly sure how Twitch’s search runs internally, but this may be due to your stream being in a glitched state with their search. Assuming they pipe streams into something like elastic search when they go live, perhaps your stream wasn’t indexed. I would try taking your stream offline for a short while (since it appears to be a 24/7 stream), then starting it up again to see if that helps.
