: ^ My Bug post identified issues and gave suggestions for remedies - do *you* have any comments, Cameron? Everyone working on Ramora (or AMO) might be aware of what is going on behind the scenes to improve AMO but certainly nobody else does. Current status? Is there a plan and a progress report somewhere? [[User:RenegadeX|RenegadeX]] | : ^ My Bug post identified issues and gave suggestions for remedies - do *you* have any comments, Cameron?

: I think your bug has a lot of good points (that we all agree with). I'm currently writing the search for remora, and at this point it just does a basic LIKE query, but it will be easy to expand on, it just depends on how creative we want to get. I think your #2 and #3 issues from that bug are the highest priorities (in respect to what I'm doing right now). If you have experience with php, you're welcome to see the search() function evolve [http://svn.mozilla.org/addons/trunk/site/app/controllers/search_controller.php here] (and i'm happy to hear suggestions). Since it's working right now in it's most basic form, I'll start focusing on enhancing it (sorting results, creating an advanced view, etc.). In fact, I'll just start a "search" section in the idea dump as soon as I finish posting this. -- [[User:clouserw|clouserw]] | : I think your bug has a lot of good points (that we all agree with).

== Basic flow of search == | |||
This will probably grow greatly after our next meeting, but throw some ideas out: | |||
* By default (ie. not an advanced search): | |||
** We'll search addons.title, addons.description, _________ | |||
** Title should carry more weight than description | |||
** Results will be returned in a "relevance" order | |||
= Sorting of addons = | = Sorting of addons = | ||
