looks like we cant go past page 25 now

Dear GrabCAD Community,

According to our tech team, all the searching-related issues should be resolved.

On behalf of the GrabCAD team, I apologize for the inconvenience. If there are any more issues please let us know and we will get right on it.

what about the page problem only have 55 page of the categories=military when we had 100+

Yes, there are many models that *still* do not show up when searching using keywords ; e.g. 'fractus' is missing a few of my models.

i bet they are deleting stuff

Models are not being deleted but NOT showing up in the library search engine. When I search for all my models using my name 'Minichiello' only 149 models out of 283 or 149/283 = 52.65% of my models are showing up ( a little more than half ). Here are the results :

https://grabcad.com/library?page=1&time=all_time&sort=recent&query=Minichiello

I checked to see in my profile if my models are still there and they are, but just not searchable.

Furthermore specific keywords when used are not bringing up all the search results such as for 'antenna' which is here :

https://grabcad.com/library?page=1&time=all_time&sort=recent&query=antenna

So the library search engine is *definitely* not working properly !!

Steven, I believe that GrabCAD has some kind of automated script to hide duplicate models? I recently uploaded a ship model, https://grabcad.com/library/ferris-wooden-steam-freighter-1, and later I made a variant of this in a different and very interesting paint scheme, https://grabcad.com/library/ferris-freighter-in-dazzle-camouflage-1

After being showcased on the 'recent models page', they both disappeared and cannot be found by searching. Maybe this also happens to your models? Somehow models that are unique and have a purpose gets hidden because they are mistaken for duplicates? I know that my ships are very similar, but they tell different stories and it takes several hours and requires knowledge to convert one into the other, so I strongly feel that they should be allowed to co-exist as individual models!

Steen ;

There is no reason for that type of filters !

Only filers for advertising, spamming, profanity, explicit (sexual), harassment, bad conduct, threats, fake files, racism, and other disturbing information should be filtered.

Other than that detailed model filtering is totally unnecessary and total waste of time that should be focused on real problems.

Ahti ;

I just woke up at 7:15 AM PDT and after performing multiple key word tests on the library search, it appears that the library search is back to normal !!

Thank you and your staff for getting the system back to normal.

Also i noticed that there is a new feature to broadcast if someone is looking for work, which is nice too.

Many thanks !!

Steven
