Lighthouse has a new layout. Prefer the old one? Return to the old layout, and switch back any time from the link at the top of each page.

GUI: Unclear how to get to the SEARCH page

#7

I want to do a specific search of several kanji, but there's no option at the top of the screen that takes me directly to the SEARCH screen from different parts of the website.

    So no matter where you are on the site you want to be able to search for data?

    What kind of output do you imagine it will give you; a set of flashcards? What if the results include both kanji and vocabulary? Do you want them to be mixed together, or display kanji cards in one section of page and vocabulary cards in another section?

    Maybe this is more of a matter changing menu options to something more specific like

    CREATE a list
    STUDY a list
    MANAGE lists

    You would have this under both the Kanji and the Vocab options.

    STUDY a list --> Kanji --> KanjiTastic Lists || My Lists
    STUDY a list --> Vocab --> KanjiTastic Lists || My Lists

    If you want submenus for the KT Lists or My Lists, that may be OK, too. I think a person coming to the site is thinking they can create/study/modify lists. Right now, the menu options are very clear what you can really "do". Like what am I supposed to do with "Vocabulary --> Dictionary"?

    If you have "Dictionary", it may be better to put that under "Tools" or "Resources" or something.

    (Just off the top of my head)

    I meant, NOT very clear what you can really "do".
