Search Issues - 404 Errors

It could be that work is going on in the background and the following issues may just be temporary ....

When I search on, say, SlowBlues from the home page I get about 10 listed SlowBlues returned but no clue as from which keyboards they originate. Previously my keyboard was listed first, and marked as from SX900 keys.
If I click on any of the SlowBlues listed - I receive 404 Error

kaimei19 Should be fixed, thank you!

Now I get 8 styles returned (with keyboard info) and the 404 Not Found Error has gone. But previously my keyboard (SX900) appeared at top of list - a very desirable feature. Now my keyboard is not among the 8 styles returned.

I tried a logout/login to see if that would work, but alas not.

kaimei19 Will add it to the todo list. Before I think it was just a happy accident as it was essentially unsorted and SX900 just happen to be the first keyboard in the table.
Meanwhile you can try the new advanced search (see the announcement) there you should be able to filter for the exact model.

There's still a bug somewhere - no styles at all get returned for my keyboard (SX900) - I see the styles for every model but mine. It's forcing me to pick what seems to be the nearest fit (SX700?). I'm sure I can locate SX900 styles using the new Advanced Search but adding new songs/styles was much quicker the way it was.

kaimei19 I rolled back some of the changes temporarily see if it looks better. It wasn't promoting owned keyboards before, just it was broken in a way that it was displaying SX900 if it was present anywhere, but I will try to make it promote owned keyboards, or maybe just display multiple keyboards.
BTW for linking songs it shouldn't matter what keyboard it is, if they are named the same they all would be linked to the same song.

It does look better. My SX900 styles are now returned in the search.

I'm not sure what the sort order is - it seems to vary from style to style. Sometimes older keyboards sort higher than newer ones. It would be excellent if you can manage to promote the user's keyboard based on their profile (as it seemed to be the case with me earlier) . Not sure if you can allow a user to have more than one keyboard (some people collect them 😊). My suggestion would be:-

Promote style for a user's primary keyboard to top of list (if they nominate one), thereafter list consistently. It could be by newest model, alphanumeric, anything really - but a user would find it easier to locate their style.

Thanks for your prompt attention to working on these issues,
