Improvements in search results

Post by PeterJ »

We have implemented some small changes to the search results pages:

Some users have reported that they were not aware that you could click on the search results to go to the detail page about the game, so we have added a 'See Details' button.

Also, games which don't have loading screens and or in-game screens will no longer have the 'placeholder' image displayed in search results. This makes searching through results a much nicer experience (especially on mobile).

Thanks to Ricardo (4thRock) for implementing both these changes.

Great!

I really like that various people are working on the site and still you manage to tie a it all together into a final working product.

Curious but whenever I make a search (on Chrome, mobile or web) and the results are displayed, I click on 'see details' and it doesn't work.

It only works if I click on any other place (on game title, year...)

Thanks for reporting, I messed up the code bit, it should be a simple fix :D
Until then yes, you can click on the other places ;)
