I know they have been out for a couple days (weeks?) I know because I've been using them and LOVING THEM! Especially the Spell List index. If I could ask one thing, the feat index, it really could use a preview of the feat, maybe on mouse over, or something? The individual feat pages are enormous and take a while to load, and then jump to the anchor link.

Do... I hint a Pony Reference in that '20% Cooler?'. O.o
I would hope so..
I was just wishing Paizo would something like this yesterday. It's like they are inside of my brain.
Ahhh. Nice.
A small feature request / idea:
All spells share certain traits. For example: they are abjuration spells. Or they are 3rd level abjuration spells. Or they are all 2rd level cleric spells.
I guess your spell lists come from a spell database of some sort. What would be awesome is if there would be navigatable dynamic lists that could be reached from the spell page itself. If the spells are indeed from a database, that would be a piece of cake to add.
I tried to do it for myself on my private PRD page by parsing PCGen source files, but well... Paizo's PRD is much better, errata are in there, and well. It's paizo.com ;)
Thanks!

Thanks Paizo! :D
I've been using the indexes and find them very handy.

I've been using the indices a lot on my iPad and it's been very, very useful both when playing and when GMing. Also echoing henkslaaf above, an eventual list filter to say, sort by school, and also by descriptor (such as all language-dependent arcane spells) would be excellent.
After monsters, I'd also like to request equipment, please!
I also want to echo the comments that the new PRD is very slick, purdy, and the indexes very handy.
Might I add an additional request? Being able to filter the magic items by slot, price, and even CL, would be exceedingly useful.

Seriously Paizo, your attention to the customer is what makes me continue to buy your products. (plus the quality has been fantastic) As a business model, I think that you have hit upon something special and I look forward to gaming with you for many years to come.
Bravo!
Edit: And I just dug into the changes...holy crap that is great!

It would be awesome if you could use it on the iPad/ *droid when there is no internet connection.
I played around with ways to make that happen, but the ipad has limits to the amount it will store and that limit is somewhere between 5 and 15 megs. If I rememeber correctly it will ask for more but the entirety of the prd is about 60+ megs I think. It was also a little confusing and required a lot more attention when we updated things so we decided there were way too many disadvantages. It is all just html and javascript though. Not a lot going on server side there, so you might be able to find a solution.
As to other indexes, I don't want to say that we'll never do them, but I will say if we do them, they most likely won't be done anytime soon. We didn't really create a database for these so it's somewhat less easy than you might think. Also, specifically with school, subschools, and descriptors, that list is really big and I don't want to cause a lot of clutter. I've toyed with the idea of color-coding various schools or adding a colored icon to the side for each entry, but much more than that and we've got a giant page full of things you can filter by before you even start looking at spells.
Wow, this is a HUGE improvement to the spell lists, great job! As others have said, the main addition I'd like to see now would be the ability to filter on school or perhaps a toggle that un/groups the currently displayed list by school.
On a side note, I got even more excited when I saw Lissa's new avatar and immediately went to see if the Serpent's Skull avatars were finally available. Alas, maybe for Christmas? ;)
Keep up the great work!
This is a really awesome update. One thing i have noticed though, the racial feats are not in the feat index. Could they be added?

We're currently doing some work on the feat index, and likely these will be included. For future issues/suggestions for the PRD, please reference our reporting thread.

So you really didn't notice that you just necro-ed a thread from four years ago?

To be fair, the indices have also been updated quite recently.
Honestly, I don't see why people hate necromancy so much anyway. But it's hard for newbies to the board to know such things, so try to cut them some slack.
I'd seen the recent blog post about updates on it, and came beack looking for it to check. I got the wrong blog post apparently.
