htdig -i will indeed delete your old databases and try to rebuild them.
You must run htmerge after running htdig. This is necessary with all
3.1.x versions of htdig. That will rebuild your word database and the
document ID to URL mapping database that htsearch needs to find the
correct results.
If, after that, you're still missing many pages in search results, it may
be because the new PHP pages don't have HTML links to all the other pages
you want to reach. See http://www.htdig.org/FAQ.html#q5.18 & 5.25.
