User blog:Dryuuu/Want the old search back?

Wikia recently updated the search. The most noticeable update is the new look search button, which I like, and the suggestion box and font is easier on the eyes. But the main purpose was the core system, you can now see results between tabs, and search specifically. One major drawback is having to go through an extra page to get to a page you type in, instead of 'Going' to it instantly. By this I mean, if you type in Aithusa, then press enter you'll be taken to a separate page where you'll have to click 'Aithusa' again, then go to it.

Before this, you type in Aithusa, then press enter, and bam, you're on the Aithusa page.

If you don't understand what I mean, try it now. Type in Aithusa, and press Enter or click the search button. You'll have to click again to get to the page.

The method before this was by default 'Go-search'.

And this can be turned back on!

Go to http://merlin.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Preferences, click the 'Under the Hood' tab and CTRL+F, search the page for Go Search. Check the box, save and you're all set!
