search suggestion in extension.joomla.org

Post by singlanhn » Wed Feb 29, 2012 5:12 pm

Hello,
guys there is one feature which is in the older version, but missing in the new version of extensions' site. I the older one, user can search for the all the available extensions under a given category, license, type, etc (by setting all the parameters, but input field). But in the new one, user have to type the name of the extension, or the search result shows nothing.
so my point is, what if user is not clear what exactly he want, but only the category ?
hope you are getting my point.
Thank you.

Hi,

you can use the advanced search:
http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/advanced-search

@ooffick
Thanks, this is what i exactly want man. I could not find any direct link for this page on the main page. The page I get on clicking "Advance search" (which is visible after searching for any extension) is in the attached screen shot.

Yes, that is correct, it is a known issue, the advance search is not visible on the main page at the moment.
