Would like to request for a better Search filters for lessons, or at least as like the old days, this new "search for all" had been using for more than a year but still find it very very not friendly, most important is often can't find the content as I want and have to go through all the listing and page by page.... and then give up sometimes....
Hope can reconsider to to improve the lesson search filters...
Do you mean the general search (icon next to the avatar or by hitting ' / ') or this page https://laracasts.com/search ?
Could you give me a few more details regarding the way you'd like the content to appear for you? What and how do you usually search for and such details would help in understanding how to tweak things. Right now it's simply based on keywords, you can give me examples of other searches and the types of features you'd expect as well, if it helps.
Thanks for your reply.
The general search able to search most of the time but it take time to scroll and browse to find the right content as the results are long. with the filter and sorting features, we can narrow the search. Another issue is that i realized that the keywords search is only list result that match the entire words exactly, said, i search "google" or "api", i able to get the results respectively, but when i key in "google api" it turned out "Beep Beep. No results".
Here some filters that i recall in used in the past Laracast design and some i refer from pluralsight, it's just for suggestion to consider, not necessary to implement all. filter like: Topic: PHP, Vue, Laravel, Livewire, Javascript, etc Level: beginner, Intermediate, advanced Type: New, Completed, In Progress, Archived Date Range: Any time, Past 6 months, Past Year, Past 2 years watched, unwatched (already there) Duration: Less than 20mins, 1-2 hours, 2-3 hours, over 3 hours Related Searches: display related topics
sorting like: Relevance, newest, popularity
option: to show more descriptions (some title related but may not applicable hence need to watch the content then only know)
