hi,
We would like to return in our search results links on another site which are linked to from pages located under our base url.
I've tried enabling Off-site Pages but it ends up indexing thousand of pages (there are only around 100 of these links/pages that need to be index). and I've tried adding the url of the site with these pages in 'Extra Domains' which gives me an 'Offsite' error message when I run the walk. Any ideas? thanks.
Niamh

In Extra Domains you should add just the domain name you want to crawl, without the http:// on the front of the path. That will then proceed to crawl all of that other site, if that is what you want.

Did you do a mode "new" or "refresh" walk? Try "new".

If you still have problems please provide specifics:
your base urls
your extra domains
the actual error messages (with the mentioned urls)
