Search Bug?
I was just doing an author search and noticed something odd. Each chapter by the author came up as if it were an independent story, with no clear indication of which was the first chapter. Is the search feature supposed to work this way or is it a bug? With a 50-chapter work, that would be 50 results for just that one story. If someone writes a lot of long, multichapter stories this could be a hassle, because you'd have to page through huge masses of results to locate only a few stories by that author.
Nasyki That error has been here since I came to the site...that's kind of annoying, but actually several other fanfiction websites used to do the same thing. I know seveal Harry Potter fanfiction websites do it...and I can't remember because it was so long ago, but I think one of the big fanfiction websites like mediaminer or something (don't remember for sure if it was mm.org but it may have been) used to do it like that. They don't do it anymore though.

Do you think they are going to fix it here any time soon or just leave it?
HRT At the rate things are going, I suspect it's going to be here for awhile. The mods don't seem to be very active lately. Unfortunately, there are several problems with Ficwad that really need attention.
