Site Update: Browsing and Searching

17 May

Browsing Workouts

We rolled out some features that makes finding workouts simple. You can search by name or filter workouts.

Filters

1. A list of exercises(movements).
2. By post type; Total Time, Total Weight, Total Rounds, Total Reps, etc.
3. By Max Effort
4. Number of Rounds
5. Time (AMRAP)
6. Submitting Gym
7. Submitting Member
8. Quick links to Main Site and Crossfit Endurance WODs

Searching

Let’s be honest, our universal search hasn’t progressed as the rest of the site. Over the past few weeks we have added individual search functionality to the exercises, workouts and gyms pages. We are leaning towards introducing this system across the entire site, because the majority of the universal search results weren’t that helpful. We added a search on individual workout posts as well, so you should be able to find stuff quickly.



Browsing Workouts

10 May

We have a lot of workouts now, somewhere around 40,000. It’s getting tough to find workouts, and we are tackling that problem this week. The first step is to encourage users to search or browse for a workout before trying to create it. The second step is to let users filter workouts to quickly find the one they are looking for.

Filters

1. A list of exercises(movements).
2. By post type; Total Time, Total Weight, Total Rounds, Total Reps, etc.
3. By Max Effort
4. Number of Rounds
5. Time (AMRAP)
6. Submitting Gym
7. Submitting Member

There will also be quick search for a workout by name.

This is a screenshot of what we got so far. Let us know what you think. Thanks guys.

Thanks for all the feedback and support guys. Keep CrossFitting!
