We'll be defaulting search on the desktop website to be the advanced search page, from tomorrow. We'll be renaming the page simply "Search".

Old basic search will still be available by a link

That's a great improvement. Thanks

Seem to have lost the ability to search by user name though?

I much preferred the simple search option as default with the option of advanced.

From a usability point of view, and GUI standards I would place the search button at the bottom of the page not hidden amongst options in the middle of the page

Industry standard is to have the user interaction at the bottom assuming the user would have read everything from top to bottom and be ready to submit their preferences with out having to scroll back up

The counter argument is that people who have read from top to bottom would know that the search button is in the middle lol

Anyway I still think the search button would work best at the bottom of the page

The username search isn't available via a link to the page on the advance search page.

Towards bottom of LHS menu there's a direct link to name search

Excellent - it had plenty of time in beta before being unleashed as the main search

Hi,

Whats happening to the user name search in the new format?

Its still there in the old version but I would guess that going at some point in time.

There's a link on the left hand browser menu to do a username search
