With the new search Lyne you are gonna be able to do something like the example below EASY peasy.....
Example: you want to see hair base models that are updos hairstyles that are for Dawn and work in Poser....You will be able to select those specific things and get back the results that are just that.
It's going to make it so much better for you to see what you want to see and you can choose that based on what you are looking for. THat's been our biggest customer complaint is if they search for something like the example I gave above they get back all kinds of stuff, hair textures, clothes, accessories so they spend lots of time wading through stuff that is not what they are looking for.. SOmetimes in the current system using the departments and filters is like just going through the what's new pages, you get all kinds of stuff and the specifics you might want to drill down to see doesn't happen correctly so with the new search/facets you can still just search through what's hot, what's new, etc if you want to see everything but you will also have a much easier and more efficient way to find exactly what you are looking for when you want to be specific and see only certain types of items.
I'm beyond excited about it. I've been working here for 12 years and we've modified the search and depts a few times but still with so many products and so many different types, different softwares, different figures, it didn't turn out as efficient as what we had hoped but this time I believe its going to be amazing. Of course it will be a change and any change takes a second to get used to a different way, a different look, etc but I sincerely think it will make things so much better for our customers so that is why this time I am so hyped up about a change. (I do not like change, I am a creature of habit and have a hard time adjusting to anything that changes..I don't like getting a new computer, a new phone, not even a new desk chair lol).
