Federica, I'm testing a client's site on my server.

The site contains 1,428 articles. I cleared the index and restarted it; the result is indeed 1,428 indexed articles.
Indexing is carried out in batches and does not stop at the end of the first batch; it continues until everything that can be indexed has been indexed..

On my website, only 100 of the 468 books have been indexed, and to index the rest, I have to edit them one by one and save them. Once I've done that, they're added to the index.
Why does this indexing stop after the first batch?

You are right but I found that the same behavior happens even with articles.

I tried to clear index (maintenance->clear index) then re-index again.

In my installation not even one article is indexed, but when I modify an article then it is indexed.

It's odd – I've tested it on other sites, and on some of them, Alexandria Book's indexing stops at 50.
I've added another website: 393 articles, 45 categories and 1 contact have been indexed.
I cleared the index and started again, but nothing changed – the figures are exactly the same.
I installed Abook 4.0.9 and the Smart Search plugin, imported my own data, then activated the plugin and restarted the indexing process.
Now, I do have all the books, but only 30 categories of articles instead of 45, and no articles or contacts at all!
It's incomprehensible.

So I made a new test on my online J6 site for Abook.
The indexation stopped on 100 books, nothing else has been indexed. :(
