Implement search functionality in more areas of the app #1306
Comments
Hey @codenyte, thanks for the issue! I think it's ok to have all of these in one. Maybe we can make them into checkboxes in your original post so we can check them off as they're done.
I believe this was implemented in #887! Take a look at the video (or try yourself) and let me know if that's what you had in mind! |
Damn, I did not realize that this feature exists. It's kinda hidden away, maybe add an option to display a search box at the top of the comment page, similar to Apollo? Is this worth considering? Edit: It's even more confusing, because I don't see the three dots as can be seen in your screen recording, but instead, I see a reply button. The search button is only revealed when long pressing on the reply button. I find this to be pretty confusing, I don't think I would have ever found this myself. |
Thanks a lot! I now have the Floating Action Button set to work as a search button. For some reason, it doesn't work though. It appears to be a bug? I tap on the FAB (which now has a search icon) and nothing happens. I can only bring up the search by swiping up from the FAB and selecting Search from the menu. Will add a screen recording later. |
Wow, nice catch! No need for a video as I can reproduce. Thanks! |

Feature Description
There are some areas of the app that could really benefit from a search feature. Examples of this are:
Before I switched from iOS to Android and from Reddit to Lemmy, I used to use the Apollo client for Reddit. I really miss the search feature in the comment section.Just realized that this feature exists, it's just hidden away. Could be improved though.I also remember this feature from Apollo and I found it to be really useful
Maybe there could also a search box for the Inbox? This isn't really necessary, but there are some situations in which it might be useful. This one is not as important though.
Alternative Solutions
N/A
Additional Context
I wasn't sure whether to combine these into one issue or to open seperate issues for the search functionality in the individual areas of the app
