search engine suggestion...

Post by benja »

I think its a good idea that when you put in something that matches an artist or album exactly with no other matches, you go directly to that artist or album page instead of a search results page with one thing on it.

On the other side, I don't like when a word I search for matches one of the multiple label names. I would like it better if the exact matches don't work for label names...

benja,

in fact the exact match already works with the artists (ie searching ranking joe leads you to his page)
it could be a good idea to do the same things with the album names (i'll ask mat to work on it).

I guess my point is to make exact matches with labels *not* take you to the label page. Its nice with artists.

hi benja,

alright, it took me a little time to understand what you said, sorry ;)

i'll talk about it with mat and if we both consider it's better not to lead to the label page when there's an exact match with the search, we'll do ;)

in a general way, thre's a lot of things to improve in our search engine

work .... work ..... work ;)

You know, I like the updates you made to the search engine and display of results, the way the exact matches pop up to the top...

nice work gents.
