Updates to Search and Groups ✌️🙂

🦋🙋‍♂️ Hi Similar Worlds 🎳⛲

Following the recent updates, and as we continue to consolidate the groups, we've made a few improvements. 👍


[b]Quick Search[/b] 🔎

It is now possible to get results straight from the Search bar, without having to change the page you are currently.

Only Groups and Users will be shown as results, but you can press Enter to see more results and search Posts.



[b]Associated Groups[/b] 🗣️

To make it easier to find Groups under a Category, we have created a new page where you can see what Groups are associated to a specific Category.

Below the Category image, there is a new link "[u]Associated Groups[/u]" which will bring you to a page like this (example for 'Random'):

Thank you for your support and we hope you continue to stay with us.

We are constantly listening to your suggestions, so please keep giving them to us, as they are very important to the future of Similar Worlds.

Very kind regards, 🧡
- The SW Team

Even though you notify of changes, further explanation before changes are implemented would definitely help people adjust.
The groups shouldn't have been lost. It's what made people bond here, the similar experiences we had...
@SW-User well said

@questionWeaver Thank you. Imo, a clearer explanation should've been given. This was abrupt, and everyone seems unhappy with these changes, and we'll lose even more people now, sadly.
@SW-User I can already see evidence of it ... the feed has slowed ... topics have become low interest ... and the number of eyeballs on posts has fallen.

@SW-User agree 100% it's what made people bond together joining groups they associate with kind of defeats the purpose of calling the site similar worlds , they are pretty much saying if you don't like it leave, which like myself I'm sure will
SW-User
@questionWeaver I've noticed that myself; fewer people post now.
@SW-User Yes ... and there are few to none personal story posts being circulated.

Much faster drop off than I envisioned

@SW-User they keep saying we are listening to you, how can they be when all you see are users saying where are the groups, bring back the groups, it's now just the same category other q and a sites like YA, Answerbag and Answermug used and look what happened to them

@ExtremeNext Eventually, everything ends..there's nothing that lasts forever..
