Harvest is disabled, because a pageMarker was matched that is configured to disable Harvest.

It is possible to configure pagemarkers that should disable Harvest. A reason can be that you do not want to track anything on certain pages, but are not able to not include Harvest on these pages.

When tracking a search event, you need to supply at least a searchTerm.

The postPublishDate should be in the ISO 8601 format.

Whenever you track a post, you have to provide a postID and a postPublishDate. The postPublishDate is used in several functions and therefore we require a uniform format. We use the ISO 8601 format.

When tracking posts, you will have to supply a postID. The postID is the indication that the we are on a post page. To track posts, we also need a postPublishDate in ISO 8601 format.

If you are unable to obtain the postPublishDate, you can use a dummy value. For example the current datetime.

harvest.trackEvent({
    "event":"pageview",
    "data": {
        "postID": "1234",
        "postPublishDate": (new Date()).toISOString()
    }
});

The website {{matchingDomain}} cannot be matched with any configured domains.
