I can no longer search MP using a residents name/creator name.  Is this working as intended? And if so... why? Would be super odd o.O.  

I am hoping this has been addressed and is an unfortunate bug.

It's an intentional change, mostly a good one. There has always been a separate store/creator search.

Many stores have names that pollute normal product search with completely unrelated stuff, so now the search ignores store names and creator names. The downside is that you can't filter *out* stores with spammy listings anymore.

Seems mostly a bad one to me.   A lot harder to find specific stores/creators ..actually, almost impossible now.  Been experimenting a lot today and bummer for anyone looking for those specific stores they need/want. 

And that is just the consumer side.  As a designer, myself.... this is worrisome as well.  Anyone looking for my store or name is pretty much SOL.

Luckily, my inworld store does just slightly more in sales.  Still, MP just as important to me.

Just use this search tab, and you'll find the store you're looking for:

Your store's products can be found by your store name anyway, since you've put it on all of your product names. LL's fix barely affects you.

Ahhhh ok...this is great to know.  I totally missed this.  I am so used to doing things the way I have for so long, I did not see past my frustration lol.

Thank you and carry on !

Do what we want, not what we ask for.

Actually, while the intention may be valid, the effect is not. It only leads to more creators adding their shop name to the individual product descriptions, as some of them already did (and some always did). 

And frankly speaking the very concept of having to use two different search functions in order to finally get to the product of the creator you are looking for is exactly the kind of unintuitive solution someone lacking any practical sense can come up with.

I know. This is a solvable problem.

I disagree and that's okay.

I fail to see where this is a problem.

That is perfectly fine but would care to elaborate at which point two different obligatory  search functions actually improve the customer experience?
