Bring back search to the API page on asset.party

For?

Other

What can't you do?

It used to be so easy to search through the api with a single keyword, looking through not only class/function names but also their descriptions made it easy to find anything you wanted in a flash. With the way it is now, it's impossible to research whether or not certain functionality exists since namespace/class/function names might not always be immediately obvious.

How would you like it to work?

The way it used to.

EXAMPLE: Searching for gamemode returns results with "gamemode" in the name or summary image image

What have you tried?

Asking the discord blindly. There's probably ways to do it with dotpeek too but it should really be part of asset.party again.

I'd argue having the old search functionality in full would be nice

Yeah I came here to say that aswell, really wish the search bar came back all together rather than exclusively on specific pages

I just use crl f but it wouldn’t hurt to have the search functionality back.

CTRL+F doesnt work for functions, only class names (unless you already know the class name and go that that class and CTRL+F. But then you're not searching the entire API)

Didn’t know that. Thanks for telling me

I was wondering why I remember being able to search the documentation on some of the portals earlier, but seem to have lost that ability now.

I'd really appreciate this also.
I wanted to help someone with an issue earlier but couldn't find the documentation page in the api.
