While we already have Random feature on the top left menu, we don't have a way to sort our search results randomly. In my opinion, it's a nice way of discovering new characters, while having control of the specific traits we want to see. So, an "Order by: Random" would be a great feature to add to the Search parameters.
Please do consider developing this feature!

That's pretty do-able. Where would you like to see it added ?

I could try adding sorting options to this visual search first.

Yikes, it was some of my better work. xD

Maybe the front page should be the UX Search?

The quickest way I could add a randomize order option was to make it a separate toggle. I'm also exploring doing this for character and series name searches next.

Thank you so much for the fast update! It's working really nicely
Yeah, UX Search is easier to find too now, I don't think I could find it through the menus previously
How does Search Compass work again? I'm not sure what Left/Right means in the context

Thank you for the good idea! Glad to hear it's working to your liking.

And thanks for the feedback on the compass search. It should be easier to understand with the new labels, Match Left, Match Right, Match Left and Right, Match Exact

Say you were looking for a character named 'Hit', our normal approach of matching left and right, can get results like:

matching left and right

Matching left

matching right

exact match

My hope is it makes it a lot easier to quickly find a specific character in the database.
