Subject: Search capability seems to be not very good

Everytime I  come to the store a search a general topic I never find all that is there. For instance search "weapons" or "gun" and you won't find any Glock look alikes. But they are there and have been since '08 infact I didn't find one of the Glock until I first clicked on a gun link and it showed his other available weapons. Maybe the problem has to do with what search tags the creator associates with the product. When you search "Dynamic" you get plenty of items that are not dynamic at all is another example.

Are you using the "Site search" or the Marketplace search products?

I am using the row of search boxes inside the market place. I don't usually know the vendor. So I use the first one on the left "search products"

Hmmm that one was recently revamped and it works pretty good I thought.   I'll pass this info on to the Marketplace team so they can take a look:)

Thank you

Is it  the vendor that supplies the store with the search strings or does someone working for the store handle that. I mean I suppose if someone uplaods a gun but calls it a dress or doesn't use the word gun anywhere it won't be categorized as a weapon. AGM17 isn't even a real model number for the gun. But its close. G17 for Glock 17. I've never liked the search functions of the store that much but maybe its not the stores fault.

If it's an older product, maybe the vendor didn't enter keywords at all for it.  It's only recently (when the search engine was revamped) that vendors were asked to enter keywords for their new products and vendors could go in to edit their older products to add keywords, if that vendor didn't do this for his older products, maybe that explains it.
