Bumpworthy's Search Engine

(1/2) > >>

Diego Gonzalez:
I think Bumpworthy's search engine could use some improvements.
It should be easier to find the bumps I'm trying to search for by just typing one word, and not necessarily the whole thing.
Have you ever suggested getting a google search engine or something? It would be very helpful.  :-P

mongo:
Search works pretty good depending on what you're looking for. Like, for example, some words don't show up at all (I particularly dislike that, even though I understand why it's there... word like Against and With). The search engine could be improved, but it also could be mostly my fault since I name the bumps. If the bump's names are too similar you'll get a bunch of results. What's the particular case you're referring to (as in, which particular bump(s) and search terms? It'd help to have data like that so we could know what to tackle first. For example, searching for "Sunday" will bring up a lot of stuff because of bump names and descriptions, and pretty much put it's too broad of a search word (kinda like putting "John" on Google) to be effective. "Blots", however, will only bring the result in which it was used (kinda like putting "John Lennon" in Google to keep up with the analogy).

PolarLight:
to my mind, you definitely need advanced search, where we could search in bump's titles OR descriptions.
still trying to find "next sunday on adult swim" bump, but can't.

I am in favor of this idea, that's really good.
