flamingangel Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 Hi there! I've been on aff.net for awhile, and one thing that I would like to see is a search, not for authors or story titles, but for the tags in a story, like PWP and such. I know that one could easily browse through all the categories and find a few stories with the taglines they want, but it'd be easier to type them in in a searchbar and have a list of all the stories with those tags, so then you don't have to go through the entire listing. If that makes sence? Just a thought, I don't think it would be.. too... hard to do/impliment, but I also don't know coding, so eh, what do I know! Anyways, there's mu suggestion ^^ <3 ~*Angel*~
redsliver Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 Tags are in the story summary, switch the option to search "Story Summary" and type in the tag you wish to search for. Although a problem does arise if the search string is less than 3 letters. like HJ or M/F.
Guest DarkAvenger Posted March 18, 2007 Report Posted March 18, 2007 My understanding is that it is limited for character numbers because if we allowed people to search for two letters, it would return thousands and thousands of results and overtax the database. Think about when we get the search coding unified... there will be bazillions of stories returned for the code M/F and it would likely take forever for it to return any result at all, if it even bothered to do anything but barf up an error page and reset the database. Anyway, other than that, yes, exactly what redsilver said. *nods*
