Helpful hints for search #571

Open Vensberg opened 1 month ago

Vensberg commented 1 month ago

Bill suggested to put a helpful hints asterisk for Search to clarify what its current capabilities and limitations are (e.g. boolean AND search, plural forms may return different results.") If there is an elegant way to do it, it may be worth adding a note that the search functionality is still being built out.

@Vensberg I have two solutions to propose for this issue:

  1. Add a FAQ about this issue. This is a good place to include the mention search is still in development and maybe include planned future features if there are some.
  2. Add a tool tip to the homepage that opens when hovered or clicked.

You can view an interactive example here: https://www.figma.com/proto/VFlaWRDVaiF1lOeQu9NEW4/Aggie-Experts?page-id=2990%3A25167&node-id=2990-25168&viewport=721%2C692%2C0.5&t=cFvLkLrIIFuA3Tow-1&scaling=min-zoom&content-scaling=fixed

@wrenaria , I like the hover-over question tip. The message about "AND" should be that the keywords are automatically combined with "AND" for search.

Is there enough space to add that search parameters will be expanded?

wrenaria commented 1 month ago

@Vensberg It's bordering too long, but how about...

Tip: Keywords are automatically combined with "AND." Singular and plural forms may yield different results. Search is under development.

OR

Tip: Keywords are automatically combined with "AND." Singular and plural forms may yield different results. More to come!

How about "Improvements coming soon!" or "Improvements under way!"

@UcDust I've added this new feature to the MVP home screen in Figma. It should open on hover and on click. Interaction showing the overlay is viewable in preview/present modes.
