BeefontheBone Incidentally, not just admins like seeing the list page - I use it to make links for edited reviews, and to find things. It's fine as is - what's one click? Plus, it's annoying if the game that shows up isn't the one you were looking for, particularly if you don't know that that means it's the only result that matches.

Danny252 Plainly: If !Results=1 then goto !ResultLink
As your search already finds the link towhen it displays it.

SupSuper You could just force the search to show a list by adding some special character in the search query, like !, so you could search for "!Some Game" and get a list. Or add a special search in the admin panel that'd always show a list.
Or... I don't know, I can only come up with geeky solutions. And yeah I did get the idea from HOTU :bleh:

Bobbin Threadbare Actually,:

Now
Easy for Tom/Hellish for users = lazy admin, a user never coming back to this site.

Suggestion in changing
Hellish for Tom/Easy for users = an admin hating his job, more users on the site.

:bleh:

Tom Henrik Yes, you have to click on the title as it is now.

Change it, and I have to do a lot of extra work to see the title, in order to quality-check it.

Now
Easy for me / users have to click on the title = pretty user friendly for both.

Change it to a direct hit to the game if there is only one hit
Hellish for me / extremelly easy for the users = an admin hating his job, and lazy users.

A. J. Raffles No, I think he was referring to the extra click you have to make now.

Bobbin Threadbare Don't you mean one push of a button. There's no 'GO!' or 'SEARCH' btton next to the thing at the top.

Tom Henrik Personally I like it the way it is now, because it makes it easier for us admins to quality-check title screens in a very simple way.

If the search brought you directly to the game page, we would have to either log into the admin section, and browse through all the games to find the title screen we want to look at, or browse through the entire genre listing on the site.

But my vote is a bit biased, because of that. Direct hit = more work for me :bleh:
The title listing = just a single extra click for you users.
