Indexing problems

Some of the subpages in Heartwarming Moments and Tear Jerker have index tags, but they don't actually index the works in question. The one on the Anime page works, for instance, but the one on the Literature page doesn't.

Unrelatedly, it's a bit inconsistent with the way the Moment Of Awesome and Funny Moments pages are formatted as well. Both MOA and FM have all examples moved to their relevant subpages, with the main page being solely a listing of the different media.

Is there a non-admin way to fix this?

The problem with TearJerker.Literature is that it was set up as a Trope without Indexing enabled. I changed it to a Subpage and checked the "Does Indexing" box, and that seems to have fixed it.

You can do this yourself by clicking on "Set Page Type" under the Tools menu on the left hand side.

Word of warning: Sometimes when you set the page to do indexing, it doesn't actually index them at that point.

Once you have set the pagetype, check and see if it has those subpages indexed... if not, go back to the original page and do an edit (you don't actually have to change anything, just click to edit the page and then click to save). That should get it working.
