Potter Search March 2024 Updates

Posted by on March 23, 2024 · 1 min read

I’m excited to introduce a bunch of new fixes and a brand new feature for Potter Search.

  • Query parameters for books: https://www.potter-search.com/?search=expelliarmus&books=7
    • Now the selected book is encoded in the query parameters. Just pick the book you’re trying to search and make a search. You can copy and share the URL and only those selected books will be searched!
  • Bug fixes
    • Fix issue where it wasn’t possible to make a search right after making a search.
    • Fix some general bugs.
  • General Performance Searches
    • Reduce some inefficiences where Potter Search was making multiple requests.
    • Compress images to make loading them in your browser faster.
    • Load some of the JavaScript and CSS later on. Improve performance of the website!

What features or bug fixes would you like to see in future Potter Search updates?
