Blog update : an improved Search, what do you think of it ?
I updated my blog’s search system, you know, that field in the upper-right corner.
The search results are the same after you’ve pressed Enter. However, there are now “find as you type” results, à la Google Instant Search.
Despite only showing the first 10 most recent results, you can refine them very easily, just press new keys, try new keywords.
I believe that should make searching much easier and faster for you all, offering you more opportunities to find whatever you like
Practical test : I only found two results while searching for “m*ind br*eak l*oli r*ape ew” (I add * or else there will be a third result ^^), I failed at cornering Nagare Ippon’s latest tank with only horrible terms, dang
(But I still hope you’ll occationally dig my hand-extracted “nothing found” pictures ^^
And don’t forget the Firefox Hentairules Plugin !)
What do you think of it, is it helpful, or do you see bugs, or see it as an annoyance ?
Can you PLEASE use bayesian ranking for the category "highest rated posts"? (Bayesian ranking takes into account the number of votes in addition to the score). Without bayesian ranking, everything in this category will just be the most recent submissions with high ratings.
Maybe it's just my display settings, but the selection box that comes out after I type expands the page width-wise. So, I had to move the horizontal scroll bar far right just to see the selection box. It's not really a problem but more of an inconvenience. But other than that, its fine. The box's color scheme really complement the site theme well.
I like it. Thanks.
Ohhh, nice.
Still I mostly use the search function to actually not get any results.

I just love those nothing found pictures.
