[s] being able to search a character by name (+12)

Posted 3 years, 3 months ago (Edited 3 years, 3 months ago) by bloodghostie

hey !! so im not sure if this is already a functionality, or if this has been suggested before (it probably has), but i use the browse feature often, and a lot of the times its difficult to find exactly what im looking for just by using the keywords and tags. even if its a premium exclusive feature, having a searchbar that lets you look up characters with specific words in their name would be AMAZING ... the keywords searchbar is unreliable because it searches for those words in both the name and in the bio, instead of just in the name, and the tags are even more unreliable, because ... sometimes people unnecessarily tag their characters, or dont tag them at all qq

since ive gotten more bumps and people saying they would also enjoy this feature, i would like to add that i would like this in both user character galleries, and in the browse section of the website. primarily i was talking about the browse section, BUT the more people say it the more i think having the ability to search by a characters name in ones personal gallery would also be beneficial :-)

+1 yes!! Also how do I access the keyword search?? I didn’t know it was a thing!

+1 yeah keyword search is a premium feature, but it'd be a lot better if it wasn't and if it were more robust :"y

JOYSTARII truelexblue honestly i dont mind that the keyword feature is premium exclusive, i just wish it wasnt so ... vague ? like, if i want to search up a character thats a specific species or aesthetic, itd be great if it didnt bring up every character owned by people looking for the same types of characters as me lol

+1 I agree!! Sometimes I spend hours looking for something because I don’t remember the tags <_

This would be helpful! However, ive heard its premium only becuase its hard on the server. Maybe in the future when we have a larger server it would be possible though!

_dreamcatcher_ i have premium so it wouldnt be too much trouble for me either way, i just think it would be a welcome feature to implement given how difficult it is to search a character by name ^^;
