On the Speakeasy title Atomika, it only will come up in 1.0

If you do a search for Atomika in 2.0 it only pulls up the Mercury listing...

and because you Failed to include the drop down publisher menu, you can only access the title by going over to 1.0

*sigh**

What it seems to me is this is happening when a title is not in the US.

The search function is limiting itself to USA it seems.

On the Atomika, if you search, it brings up the Mercury title.  Refine the search to Canada and it shows the Speakeasy title.

So, the country appears to be where the problem is.

Bryan, can this be changed to search all countries like 1.0?

ahh, never thought of that... Speakeasy coming up in Canada.

hope my lamentation for the missing dropdown publisher menu didnt sound too peevish, but I REALLY miss that feature on the front page of 2.0

It was often much quicker for me to navigate the database that way. Sometimes the search function is a little slow, and the always maddening miss-key really adds to the time spent navigating as it doesnt seem to be a "smart" search function.

If you dont type it in EXACTLY right, you get a null search...

Not having a good day with search function today. Now only the # is highlighted so I can't seem to reach any publisher that is not listed across the top. I am trying to get to Zenescope but typing the name out in search comes up empty. 1.0 is all bugged out right now too.

Ok, went a different route and searched Grimm to reach Zenescope.

Just had the same thing happen to me again searching for Atomika.  At least this time I remembered to select the dropdown menu Canada.

What would be nice if 2.0 would do what 1.0 used to do.  Draw up ALL countries in a search and then you could select down to individual countries if you desire to streamline.

Also being able to select dropdown menu for Publisher would help greatly in navigation...

I agree. Hope it happens.

also, small nitpicky bug.  when searching for the Speakeasy comic The Grimoire  You have to put inthe word "the"  A keyword search with just "Grimoire" brings up nothing.  At first I thought it was related to not being able to pull up Canadian comics, similar to the first search problem.

And searching for grimoire should pull up Collana Grimoire as well......

But, it does not work in 2.0, either..... (Both searches work fine in 1.0)

B, any ideas?

B,

Don't know if this helps, but Grimoire does come up if you search 'grim oire'

But not 'grimoire'
