Searching and pages

I've (finally) split the course listings into multiple pages and added a search feature! 🙂

There are currently 90 courses shown per page (30 rows). I'd like to show more than this, but for each course that's shown, its course image is also shown, and the course images currently aren't very optimized, so even with only 90 courses per page being shown, every time one goes to a new page, ~10MB worth of course images are downloaded O_O

There are definitely some optimizations that could be done here, and it might be nice to have a setting to display more courses per page, but for now, I think it works pretty well! 🙂

Currently, only courses' names are searched. I'm hoping to soon add support for also searching through a course's description and possibly author's name.

If you enter more than one word while searching, each word must match. For example, if I search for "beginner Korean", only courses that have both "beginner" and "Korean" in their titles will be shown.

Let me know if you find any issues! 🙂

So the search feature (of key words) works when looking for a course (having previously narrowed down the field by selecting a category). Great!

Could you extend this search to our Dashboard?

If we have too many selected (&/ or looking after) it would be great to find courses related to our search.

Also mentioned elsewhere a search by "last learned" (ie currently learning with oldest at the bottom) would be a great feature (present on MemRise).

Does the search facility, within a category, search all courses in that category or does one have to visit every single page?

It would be nice if the Next Page drop-down was also at the bottom as currently I have to scroll to the top to go to another page.
