May 3May 3 I can no longer access the advanced find function. I have re logged on, cleared my cache and have tried several other browsers like Chrome and Edge. Current browser I use is Firefox. Nothing seems to work it seem something changed in the past week as I also now get when I do a search a view listed by cover images instead of a listing by text. Unable to resolve this. Is there a direct link to bring up the advanced find? Edited May 3May 3 by David Gomes
May 5May 5 I was having this issue also and I updated comicbase to the latest build and I see it now. Try updating and see what happens for you.
May 6May 6 23 hours ago, Don Veach said: I was having this issue also and I updated comicbase to the latest build and I see it now. Try updating and see what happens for you. If I am understanding correctly, the OP is about Advanced Find on the Atomic Avenue website. The version of ComicBase one is running isn't relevant (in fact, folks who don't have *any* version of ComicBase installed should still be able to visit and do searches on the Atomic Avenue site). I can confirm that I am not seeing "Advanced Find" on the Find pulldown menu on the AA site using Chrome or Safari. It may be that Pete et al decided that using Advanced Find on Atomic Avenue (which is essentially the ComicBase master database) akin to using the data in ComicBase for free, and while some basic searches may be desirable for buyers to find things to purchase, having non-ComicBase owners doing more sophisticated data mining might be frowned upon? (total speculation on my part, I have no knowledge at all regarding Pete's thinking on this)
May 7May 7 Author I am talking about the website. Gregory, assuming what you speculate is the case. I would expect some kind of notification to be sent out prior to making a change like that. Something like this just hurts the people selling on this site as it make searching far more difficult and possibly losing out on sales due to buyers being unable to locate items. It would help greatly if such a change was done that someone from Atomic Avenue respond with an explanation or provide a link to any relevant information about this.
May 10May 10 Sorry, I don't know what I was thinking here. Especially after seeing the image that was posted. I need to get out of the house more often!
May 13May 13 Atomic Avenue's Advanced Find function was removed as part of the current site redesign. Instead, search + filtering on the results pages takes its place.
May 23May 23 I don't have ComicBase or sell on AtomicAvenue. (And have no interest in data mining.) I just want to be able to search for cheap, in-stock Bronze Age reader copies to purchase. I've been using the advanced find to buy reader copies for years and have discovered all kinds of fun reads that way. Is there anyway to replicate that the search + filtering feature? I used to do an advanced search by year range and price range (and then often by seller to see if any one seller had enough treasure to put together an order). Because right now I can't find the kind of books I want to purchase, and that's not good sellers or buyers.
