Advice Please! ITMS-9000 Error

When trying to submit my book, I keep getting the following warning multiple times:


Warning ITMS-9000: "Book Title.ibooks : assets/searchindex.xml : Search index term stem does not have any elements" at Book.


How do I correct this so I can upload my book?

Hi,


Some alert messages in iBooks include the phrase "text not allowed." For example, you might see "ERROR ITMS-9000: 'FileName.html(16): text not allowed here.'"

You can include text only in certain elements of an ePub, such as the paragraph element (<p>) or header element (<h1>). You might also see this error if you use the blockquote (<blockquote>) element in the book’s metadata.


Go to the iBooks Asset Guide in Resources and Help in iTunes Connect to learn how to code using ePub best practices.
