GuildWiki:Suggestions/Search Engine

Well the search bar isn't exactly vague. Its too specific. Like lets say i want to find collecters that have swords or staves etc, You should be able to type that in and come up with a page of Collecters and there area.


 * lol I just happen to see the spell fix, he means that if u type in Collectors + Sword/Staff (for example) that u get a list of collector's that sell swords and staves. So actually it's a good idea, but probably won't come through because it is a hell of a work, and probs won't be done because all lists need to be created manually. --[[image:Fighterbitsjsig.jpg|19px]] Wammo--talkpage Fighterbitsj 20:55, 22 July 2008 (UTC)


 * There is a mediawiki extension that we could have installed (SMW) that would make queries like that feasible without adding too much to the articles. It'd be quite a bit of work for Dr Ishmael and myself and whoever cares to help us to get that set up, though. --◄mendel► 21:36, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

If you load the search engine/bar first u will cut down on your bandwidth by over half, because most people are only coming to your page to search for something specific and don't want the full page loaded. &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by 4.235.90.228 (talk &bull; contribs) 10:20, 5 September 2008 (UTC).


 * We could add a search bar to the top of the main page, if that's what you want. See the instructions. --◄mendel► 10:43, 5 September 2008 (UTC)


 * We need to tell most people that if they have a search box on their browser's toolbar,all they need to do is to click the small triangle next to it and add this wiki to it when they're looking at one of the wiki pages. Then you can search the wiki without loading any page first. Pure win. --◄mendel► 23:20, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
