Title: Search feature broken??
Post by: Angelina on July 22, 2012, 12:00 am
How does the search feature on SR work? As a seller I have listings for products that when you search for, you have to scroll through pages of non-similar items to get to. Anyone know what's up or if there's a plan to get search working right?

It searches through title AND description of items.

It searches through title AND description of items.

It also puts the most purchased item at the top.

Something is still effed up with this... I have one item that I think sells higher volume than any other vendor with the same item, the word is in both the title and the description, and yet completely unrelated garbage shows up when you search for this.


The only thing I can think of is length of time on SR or total BTC volume across all transactions. Still... the garbage results are really obnoxious!
