What's wrong with the "search" feature in the Favorites?

[BedtimeStories77]

There was a story I wanted to add to my "favorites list" (which others can view on your profile). I know what the title is. I know I know it. (I went back and double checked.)

So, on the "search by title or user name" I typed in the full title. ("Husband" is a keyword on that title, and my search came up with other "husband" stories.) They have stories from A to M only. The story I was looking for by this feature starts with S. Is there any reason the feature won't let me pull the story back up??

I haven't tried to add a favorite in a while, but I remember there being some glitches when trying to search for story titles.

Can you enter the author's name and pull it up that way?

Not when searching for a story. If you wanted to add an author to your favorites you could search the authors, but if you wanted his/her story in your faves you cannot search by author name.

It is weird that they use "keywords" when you punch in the whole title. When I chose to search one keyword that seemed less important to the title I did finally find the story. Very odd.

It still does not pull up stories A to Z, though. (I find it hard to believe that stories about "husbands" stop at the Ms!)

Enter it by story number (the number at the end of the URL).

When I first started the search I had no idea what the story's "ID number" was... It never crossed my mind that the number at the end of the URL was it. Thank you. Surely you're saving me time on future searches!

It's spelt wishfulthinking, not wishful_thinking or wishful thinking
