Re: An argument against unified search. (sort of)
Does unified search cut down on confusion?
Lets face it BP is confusing as hell. It’s so powerful I believe it overwhelms most users. We get a thousand new members per month, but very few use any of the features. This is true with most community sites, but BP seems to be a little more so. All of us here are developers, but are users are not. The challenge is to create powerful simplicity. The basic BP interface is; here are a ton of cool features and you go figure the best way to use them. The intuitive nature of this CMS is not there yet……
…..s@#t I forgot my train of thought.
Oh yes, I believe search options will not only allow advanced searching it will better illustrate the “unified search” results by just showing the other search options available.
