"Search" Function Now Working for All iGenii Issues

Postby Richard Kaufman » December 18th, 2014, 11:30 am

At long last! Our "search" function is now working for all issues of Genii from 1936 all the way to the present! And it's very nice, too. Clear and easy to use.

Search page came up super slowly, but seemed to work OK once it did. Now I see the search results, but when I try to select one I'm seeing nothing.

Having slightly better luck with Chrome rather than Firefox.

Once one (on the web) goes to the search result, is there no way to continue on to reading the next page? For instance, I found a review, went to to search result, wanted to read the second half (on the next page) and couldn't find a way to easily do that. Am I just not seeing the option for that?

Seems to work fine for me.

As for flipping to the next page, no, there is no option for that. It only finds the pages with the word you seek. However, it's an easy matter to note the issue number and go to "Issues" to click on it.

The web search is sort of working for me, just really slow and with some annoyances (like the aforementioned lack of a direct link from search to the actual article).

The layout of the search results is stellar though. Really like seeing the page thumbnail withe text snippet. Makes it really easy to see if the search result is from an ad, article, etc.

Will the android app ever be able to search beyond the currently loaded issue? Or am I doing something wrong there?

I can't recall if the apps have a search function. I would assume if they did, it would only work while online.

You can always view the issues and use the search through your browser on any device.
