+### Change order during indexing
+
+When reindexing places during updates, there is now a different order used
+which needs a different database index. Create it with the following SQL command:
+
+```sql
+CREATE INDEX idx_placex_pendingsector_rank_address
+  ON placex USING BTREE (rank_address, geometry_sector) where indexed_status > 0;
+```
+
+You can then drop the old index with:
+
+```sql
+DROP INDEX idx_placex_pendingsector
+```
