Dear people,

A lot of hard work has been going on behind the scenes to rewrite the search engine with the latest tools we have.

Various administrators have already participated in the test and today we want to expand the test group slightly, namely: everyone who feels like it and has the time.

The link below takes you to a new search page (note: test setup with live data, so if you change something on an item it's for real) where you can test to your heart's content with the search window at the top and all filters, search results, images and the like . As soon as you click on something else, you flip to the current site; Keep in mind.

We are very curious about your questions, opinions, complaints, speed experiences, compliments (!) (;-), whatever. We are also very curious about the use on mobile phones.

So: come on!

https://www.lastdodo.nl/nl/areas/search?q=kuifje

(Meanwhile we are working on much more beautiful things...)

I don't see the section sugar sachets between the top 8 sections. It would be useful if the heading before it were included.

We deliberately did not do that, because then you will also see the entire section under it as separate items. Maybe think again.

First impression: beautiful and handy. Compliments.

Small test I noticed 1 thing (call it beautify).
In the header I neatly get 61 Catalog sections.
The 'header' then repeatedly indicates the following headings when I go to the next page with results. So that takes some getting used to, but works.

The disadvantage is when I have clicked a few pages further, and the number of Catalog headings is 'finished', and there are still enough results.
Example appears on page 6: Catalog sections 61 No sections found

This can be confusing for people.
You have not yet seen every result (page) and the impression is given that there are no more sections, which is correct, because the display is talking about (bottom) total pages. Not my biggest problem if you understand how it works, but I'll indicate it.

It can be easily solved (visually) to make an entry there (when the end of rubrics is reached), or a simple link to / reference & gt; all sections, so that the impression is immediately created: this is the end of the section, and here you can go back ... One could also choose a number of result displays (per 40/80 pages etc .. but that would have an adverse effect on the speed of the site with many users) (tech: number of queries becomes very high with display).
Hope I have stated it clearly.

It is not the intention that the sections at the top switch when you go to a new page. Well spotted! We are going to look at that.

Okay. fine.
Then I have 2 small points .. I am a bit lazy hihi (PC use where I do not try to think of myself personally, but try to view it for a user in general. Personal taste is always something different ...) .. & gt;

a) the 'prev & lt; & gt; next' (page numbering) cannot also be used at the top right next to Item and for For sale crammed in between.?
In such a way that he is twice on the page (top and bottom). Will scrolling make a difference for mobile users? ...

b) bottom right & gt; Quickly go to (field) = numeric (p number) & gt; alt / hover text that you have to hit enter? (yes it seems so logical .. but still ..)


Furthermore, imo will tell time whether something can be improved or whether it is more convenient (in general use).

To keep up with Tintin, on my android phone I see: 26506 from 000 by - 0 filters. If I use other filter I see: 1607 from 000 - 1 filter.

I wonder why those: of 000 are on the screen. I don't see that on the pc.

And how does this work within a section?

I also think it looks good, you can find even more errors with it.

Tested on smartphone. 1. In the current version there are 20 per page (which was annoying), in the new version 40 per page. Put those page numbers at the top too, you're scrolling crazy. (Already asked in this topic Leike-w) 2. Print page 664 & gt; Http error 500 3. Quickly go to [& gt; 250] & gt; Http error 500 4. Now the results are numbered. Was this number left out on purpose? Unfortunately. At the bottom is also always 40 of 26521 (I understand 40 items visible). This makes it somewhat confusing. Add a number back to each result or put 1-40 of 26521, 41-80 of 26521, ... so you know roughly where you are. 5. Above the list is now "1 filters" by default. Is there something that I am overlooking, but I have not done anything. How do I just get "0 filters"? 6. (Continuing on 5.) Now I click on Filter Postcards then I get "2 filters". If I click on Filter again, I can remove postcards again. But it always seems as if there is 1 filter too much.

In the old version the filter option was not there, and I cannot discover it in the new search engine either:

How do I make a selection of books by an author where the field "Original title" is not filled ?

Someone?

You will soon go to the gallery of the author and there you can select 'not filled in' per area ... Is in the testing phase and works fine.

Edit: sorry, even in the new search engine it already works .

Searching for blancos has been on my wish list for a long time. Fine. But ... 1. The "not found" is in the alphabet screen under N, would have preferred a separate button. 2. (Not tested) How does this work in the other languages? Which letter? Confusing? 3. (Not tested) What if I really enter "not found" as the field value of an item, where is this in the search results? 4. For fields where only 1 value is possible, this works via a detour, for fields with multiple values this does not work completely yet. Vb Suppose (purely theoretically, of course not correct) that I want to put all Postcards in the Designer = Herge field. Searching for "not filled in" does not give me all results (because it is filled in but with a different value). Searching for another value does not give me the correct results with certainty because there may be several field values and it may be correct after all. The only solution for this is a "reverse filter" = NOT EXISTS Herge. I feel that you are going to tell me that that is for the wish list. 5. And what I also don't see in this version is search for links, or even better search for NOT links. A lot is already possible, but the more powerful the search, the faster we can detect and correct errors.

In the current version there are 20 per page (which was already annoying), in the new version 40 per page. Put those page numbers at the top too, you are scrolling crazy.

Can you try to explain in which situation you want to jump to a certain page in the search engine?

Perhaps not something for the collector looking for a specific item, but this is very useful for cleaning up and uniformizing. What I do today (let's forget for a moment that the catalog moves daily and so there may be slight differences). Ex: Rubric Other, search "Lambic" = 317 items, sort by Title, and we can start checking ..., when I stop I know which number on which page I stayed, so from here it has to continue tomorrow.

We added 'recently changed' to the sort. That might help, but I get your point.

The 'quickly go to box' can now contain 4 digits and no longer runs on an error with too large numbers, I think.

1. Go to, still no change. Do we already have the correct version? 2. Sort order is different (and better!) Than before. Still a point of attention: filter Postcards = 1143, sort title ascending, p3 "AU PAYS ..." is at the top of the aa, "a" then completely elsewhere, so there is a way in which capital letters and spaces are interpreted.

I've also seen the "recently changed" sorting. Top, was also on my wish list. The search engine itself works well with this and you do not have to adjust it, but there is another underlying problem (since a long time). Filter Postcards, sort Recently changed, one of the top ones is "Tintin 042" 596083 changed on 28/09/2020 by nestor. So according to the search it is correct at the top. But according to History changed on 29/01/2013 by nestor. So there is "something" that breaks the date / user which of course causes a wrong result.

If you're looking for an "idiotic user" for beta testing then you've come to the right place. But it is all meant positively, all in the interest of future quality. ;-)

So there is "something" that breaks the date / user, which of course results in a wrong result.

That "something" is the fact that the item was added to a shop on the most recent date. This will be recorded as a change, but not reflected in the History.
