PRD Search is working pretty awesome now

For those of you who haven't poked with it yet the updated search works with the PRD. You can hit "PRD" in the dropdown on the left and it usually drops you not only to the right page but to the specific item you are looking for. So for example "Blinded" or "Confused"

My only gripe is sometimes the page is scrolled just a little bit too high and the top bit of the sections get cut off. Otherwise it's a ton better than the google searches I've been using.

You can create a new Google search or a quick search on Firefox using the following search URL:
"http://paizo.com/search?q=%s&x.x=0&x.y=0&what=prd"

Hopefully the forums don't eat the symbols there :)


Not bad, thanks for pointing that out.

For those who, like me, use Opera, just set the search option to "PRD", rightclick on the search field, and go "Create Search..."

Enter the key(s) you want to use, and you're good to go.

I used (surprise, surprise) prd. So I can just hammer "prd shoggoth" into the address bar and get a search for shoggoths.

Wow - being able to directly search the online PRD is awesome!


Is the functionality of that search integrated in a downloadable way - if you grab the site offline as it were?

Sorry—it's server-based.

Yep, thought that might be the case. Oh well.
