Associate URL under a category

Post by McWilliams »

Greetings all!

Quick question regarding crawling URLs outside of a site and their association to a given category.

My web site has an investor relations section that's hosted elsewhere and it falls under a different domain.

Now, I use Webinator to crawl all 13 of my sites (located on the same server) and each site is assigned to a category. There's also Search All Companies option (which will show results from all sites).

With the investor relation link being a redirect out of my site, is there a way to associate that URL/domain to my site's category? Right now, if I search for investor relation information from my site's category, no results show, however, if I switch to the SEARCH ALL COMPANIES category, results will show.

I'm running Webinator 5.1.1

You may have multiple url patterns per category. Click the ? link next to the category inputs for documentation.

Got it figured out!

Just added the extra URL to the category's URL patterns and did a new walk...worked like a charm!

You guys rock!

Cool. But you didn't need to do a walk. It recategorizes when you change categories.
