Fixing errors

No pages found

When the search parameters can't find any items for the given parameter, a red error box will be shown. It can be caused by updates to the game that change the name of items, so links to the old name can no longer find the item with the new name.

The solution is to either use a different search parameter or making sure the parameter is correct.

Example:

Broken: {{Item link|item_name_exact=Pierce}} Module Error: No results found for item using search term "item_name_exact = Pierce"

Fixed: {{Item link|item_name_exact=Pierce Support}} Module Error: No results found for item using search term "item_name_exact = Pierce Support"

In rare cases, it's also possible it's caused by Database problems causing data to not be written on the target page. In those cases, null editing the target page should help. See Path of Exile Wiki:Known issues for more information.

Too many results found

When the search parameters find to many items, a red error box will be shown because the script doesn't know which one is the desired result. It is generally caused by items that share the same name, but have their own page such as variants of an unique item for example.

The solution is to use the page parameter to point to the page of the desired item.

Example:

Broken: {{Item link|item_name_exact=Two-Stone Ring}} Module Error: No results found for item using search term "item_name_exact = Two-Stone Ring"

Fixed: {{Item link|page=Two-Stone Ring (ruby and topaz)}} Module Error: No results found for item using search term "page = Two-Stone Ring (ruby and topaz)"

In rare cases, it's also possible it's caused by Database problems causing duplicate data on the target page. In those cases, null editing the target page should help. See Path of Exile Wiki:Known issues for more information.

Note

In some case, fixing the error requires to pipe the name to reflect the original wording and context such as in the patch notes section:

Broken: {{Item link|Projectiles Weakness }} Module Error: No results found for item using search term "item_name = Projectiles Weakness"

Fixed: {{Item link|Sniper's Mark|Projectiles Weakness}} Module Error: No results found for item using search term "item_name = Sniper's Mark"
