First of all, we have added a <strong>new sorting<\/strong> algorithm that automatically sorts the search results according to their relevance with respect to the introduced query terms. This is now the <strong>sorting option by default<\/strong>, but you can still sort sounds according to their number of downloads, average rating, creation date or duration.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, we also added a search option called<strong> Group sounds by pack<\/strong>?which basically collapses all search results belonging to sounds of the same pack in a single entry that can then be expanded with a provided link. With that option we prevent filling pages of search results with very similar sounds. Group sounds by pack is <strong>enabled by default<\/strong>, but you can switch it off using the advanced search options.<\/p>\n<p>We have also slightly changed the behavior of <strong>Most downloaded sounds<\/strong> list in the sounds page. As some of you requested in the forums, we are now displaying a list of the most downloaded sounds only among those uploaded during the last week. In this way we promote more popular new sounds instead of all-time popular sounds.<\/p>\n<p>We hope you enjoy these improvements!<br \/>\nTake them as a?Christmas?present from the Freesound Team \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Happy freesounding!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello everyone, today we have updated Freesound search functionalities with some improvements we have been working on in the last weeks.
