Since JED contains so many extensions, very often I need to find an extension via search function.

However, I feel very difficult when searching because JED now do NOT offer the search option of "search by extension type (such as component/module/plugin/language"!

I remember that in old times JED has such an search option, it can help me find my expected extension quickly. But now, I have to browse through too many extensions in wrong type to reach the one I wanted.

Strongly wish you will add such a search option!

Thanks.

This is an important issue. Why no one responded to this topic?

Please JED team and this "search by extension type" field to the advanced search form. Thanks.

Nearly 3 months passed, no response yet? Where is the JED Manager team?

I feel your pain. The search function on JED is one of the most requested features.
Can't help you on that!

Then who can solve this ? I don't think it is so difficult, just a new option ! And, I remember that once before, there were such an option ! Who had removed that option? What a wrong action!

I think this is the role of CLT or OSm as it not part of our duty

You are right, dknight, thank you.

The confusion is, when I directly click the "Advanced Search" link on JED page, it will not show me this layout.

Anyway, thank you.

Within our current structures, the features and functioning of the JED is the responsibility of the JED Team, and the Community Leadership Team (CLT).

OSM would only be involved if such a feature/function impacted on, or involved finance or trademark. (or if OSM was requested to take over the managing of the JED)

@ baijianpeng
I believe that Sander Potjer has taken over the role of CLT liaison for the JED. I've pointed him to this discussion.

@jconsultingza : Thank you for the help.

According to former reply by dknight, it seems that JED already had this option in the Advanced Search form, but, it can not be reached by clicking on the regular "Advanced Search" link. This should be a bug. Hope someone will fix it soon.

True for the OSM. I think lafrance was making clear that JED team is different from JED leadership who is the only responsible for features in the last 2 or so years!
As stated in a previous reply:
