Describe the Bug

I just installed Karakeep via docker on my Synology, then imported a number of bookmarks via an HTML file (Chrome format). The items show up in Karakeep, and are added to a list "Imported bookmarks". However, they are not found via search.

To debug, I added some items manually, those weren't found, either.

As suggested elsewhere, I shut down the containers, cleared the meilisearch docker directory and restarted the container. That resulted in a re-index, which fixed search for the manually added items, but the imported items were still not found.

I favorited one of the imported items, that resulted in indexing it. It was subsequently found by Search.

Steps to Reproduce

Import bookmarks
Search for any imported item

Expected Behaviour

Item is found via Search

Screenshots or Additional Context

No response

Device Details

No response

Exact Karakeep Version

vnightly

Imported items are supposed to be normal items. This seems like some issue in your workers. What does the admin page of the background jobs say?

After some jiggling around it started working, and imported everything correctly. Must have been as you wrote, something wrong with my workers.
