Good evening ROBLOXians,

When I search for clothes that I can use for Humanoids when I'm building thumbnail set-ups and such, I don't get the results I'm looking for.

For example, I was looking for an RAF (Royal Air Force) uniform for a project I'm working on and instead I get a McDonald's Uniform and a Red Sweater (With Backpack) as results; any type of RAF related clothing cannot be found.

Similar results occur for other searches I've done for more basic clothing, such as "Brown Trenchcoat", a search in which the items include Brown Hair Extensions and a Rainbow suit. Even though there are some Brown Trenchcoats, there are a bunch of irrelevant items listed (I searched on "Relevance").

I can say the same for when I search the Library in ROBLOX Studio, I'll search for a model and when I click "Updated", I get a bunch of non-search related items.

I would like to know if ROBLOX plans to update their catalog search engine anytime in the foreseeable future or if they will consider my situation.

Thank you for your time,

-Sub

That either means it doesn't exist, was blocked from ROBLOX, or you need to learn to use the options panel.

It searches just like a search engine before google was invited, for example avast, Remember those days? You search something avast and it looks for anything with the keyword of it. So if you were to search "book" and if there was a candy named book, that will show up.

If you had payed attention, I used that as an example of the outcomes I am left with whenever I search for clothes.

Just to note, for everyone mentioning tags, the Catalog search gave me relevant results not too long ago (I estimate between July-January).

That is the most realistic solution, by far.
