Bug Fix
Bug Fixes & Stability Improvements
A round of fixes across the platform to keep things running smoothly:
- Pinned monitors on AI Mode and AI Overviews get answers for the right area. Google often ignored the exact point, so we now send the nearest named area with it, such as the postcode or city. In a test, AI Mode answers landed in the pinned metro 46 out of 48 times, up from 32. Visibility on pinned Google monitors can shift because of this.
- Shopping reads the new product card format ChatGPT switched to around October 15. Answers since then have been read again, so their products show up.
- Top Merchants lists products without a merchant link under the merchant's name, instead of leaving the chart empty.
- Pages on your own subdomains show up in the Page Tracker and citation charts again after a brand merge.
- Page crawls wait out Cloudflare challenge pages before marking a page as blocked, and read pages in non-UTF-8 character sets correctly.
- Site audit runs that got stuck as pending now finish.
