Take away the Vender search bar ? At least put the PA's in alpha order!

nowefg

The Vender search bar option has been removed. But the PA's, ALL the PA's are listed in number of products order, not alphabetic order.

Having to waste so much time scrolling through the entire PA listing, and possibly missing the PA I'm looking for, as just happened two times running, it's much easier to just shop somewhere else.

That does sound very frustrating. I think there might actually be something wrong with the way you're seeing the site or the PA page. I just went to look and it looks just as it always has to me. The blue bar at the top of the page in the store still has a 'Vendor' button on it, and clicking there takes me to this page:

There's still a search bar and the PAs are in alphabetical order in the list. I'm not sure why it wouldn't show up like that for you. Maybe it's a browser thing? I'm using Firefox, if that helps at all. Perhaps someone who understands the ins and outs of websites and the Daz store might have some better suggestions for you so you don't have to keep wading through that disorganized list you've been seeing.

I think the person was talking about like when you click on say the 50% storewide button on the sales page and it brings up everything, on the top left you have artist, genre, figure, software. Before the change in the store, we were able to click on say the artist tab and type in who we were looking for but that function is now gone. That's actually something I used all the time because I know the artists that I'm looking for and it was just so much quicker and easier to type in the name. 

I've actually never seen the page you posted here, I'll have to look for that.

You'll find it in that part of the screen:

Huh, well I'll be, I never noticed that in the past like six years. Thanks!

Yeah, I noticed that the search option is missing from the artist filters on the store pages, and since the filter list is not alphabetized, it's really cumbersome to find the artists you want.

Doesn't really help if you want to see a particular artist's within the sale you are browsing.

In Firefox at least the search in page feature works on the list, once it is expanded.

Oh really, it's working in Firefox? Hmm, I use Edge and I have everything set up in there already with websites and such. Ah well, maybe it'll get fixed in the new year.

What's the saying? 'If it ain't broke, fix it 'til it is.' Think that's happened already.

Oh, yes, that's possible. I very rarely use that menu, so it didn't come to mind when I read the post.

For what it's worth, I use Firefox in Linux, and it's true what benniewoodell wrote.
The option to type in an artist's name within a sales section is gone, and the artists that are listed as being in the sale are not in alphabetical order.
When there are several, it's not really worth scrolling thru every artist to see if who you're looking for is there.
There's always another sale, anyway. And I'm usually in quite a hurry, so that has to be my attitude.
I do hope, tho, that these changes are only a temporary thing.

 I believe Richard means the browser's search in page tool. I tried Chrome's find tool, and it worked as well. Just make sure you have the artist filter list open before you search the page.
