I've noticed that search results are ordered by the date of the last reply in that thread. This may become inconvenient when searching for content instead of title only.
I was wondering could it be able to order by the date of the reply which actually contains the searched query.
For example, if I enter to search "bgh" in Content only, first result I get is a thread where word "bgh" was last mentioned on May 27. I'd like as a first result get a thread where word "bgh" was mentioned the latest.
Another nuisance is when looking at someone's posts history. Again, as a first result I get a thread which has the latest reply, regardless of the actual date of the reply that person made. It would be nice as a first result to get a thread where that person has made his latest post.
This is mostly inconvenient when you wanna see the last post of someone who hasn't posted in a while.
Anyways, I know these are just small "problems", but I'd like to see your opinion about them. Maybe I'm overseeing something so obvious which I usually do, or maybe there's a valid reason things are the way they are now.
Whichever the case may be, I'd like a reply

Don't lose hope. If all else fails you could pm R1CH.

I strongly support this. That ordering is very annoying.

Given it has been 10 months since the thread was created, perhaps a gentle nudge won't be so bad. If you do end up angering the RICH then it will be fun to see what he turns you into

Alas poor 2PAC I knew him from a feedback thread. Taken before his time...
R1CH what have you done? <----Insert overly dramatic wailing.

Try the tentacles, I hear they are more flexible.
Why R1CH, why?
|
I strongly support this idea as well. Would be very helpful!
|
This would actually be really helpful. Hopefully R1CH puts it on his list of things-to-do. 2Pacalypse-, are you spamming R1CH with pm's yet?

Trying tentacles over claws or changing the search order?

O R1CH-eo, R1CH-eo, wherefore art thou R1CH-eo?
Deny thy task list and refuse thine more important work;
Or if thou wilt not, be but swamped with my constant PMs
And I'll no longer be a quiet netizen.
R1CH-eo:Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?
'Tis but thy task list that is my enemy:
Thou art busy, though not so busy.
What's so busy? It is nor useful nor relevant,
Nor helpful nor informative, nor any other pretext
Excusing a mod. O do mine other task!
What's in a task list? That which we call a job
By any other word would be as trying;
So R1CH-eo would, were he not R1Ch-eo swamp'd,
Retain that sufficent time which he owes
Without that list. R1Ch-eo, doff thy list,
and for thine more important work, which is no part of thee,
Order the search results!
I have too much time on my hands...

I'd really like to order by amount of posts too.

Sigh...
Apparently not
This thread almost disappeared off page 2 and into the dark recesses of TL backend. We will get a response to this suggestion.
Keep fighting!

I guess shakespeare doesn't do it for R1CH.
Suggestions anyone? This would be really useful. A response, just a response would be nice.
|
I know I keep bumping this thread but it would be nice to have a response to this request. It has been up here since June last year and I know that I am not the only one that would appreciate this feature. I understand the extremely limited number of R1Ches available to you but a response of any kind would be appreciated.
On a lighter note, beef cake anyone?

Can we get an option for ascending/descending please?

No.
(Since it would lead to misleading results)

Wonderful update, Thankyou so much, makes searching (/looking at post histories) 10x simpler!
Tofucake: 
Edit: I seem to have encountered a slight bug in the search system. It seems that after a thread is locked and re-opened, each of those 'instances' of the thread is separated by the search system, resulting in the duplication of threads in the search results:
+ Show Spoiler +and
+ Show Spoiler +
This seems to only result in situations where a thread is locked and unlocked, doesn't occur in single-locked threads (but does still occur in a double-locked thread if it is closed).
I'm unsure if this situation was caused by the recent update to the search code, since this issue is pretty minuscule and might not be readily noticed.
--I misunderstood the system, R1CH cleared it up

So I'm getting something like this right now if I search for somebody's posts in Mafia games. As it is, the same OP shows up a ridiculous number of times.

Change the ordering to be by thread date rather than post date. Then all replies will be grouped together.
