Can we get a better search option? For example. Try searching blindsight. The search shows where the word shows up, but you still have to dig for the answer. I recommend a glossary where these terms are in addition, the page number where the original definition shows up. When I selected compendium, blindsight shows up under senses. This did not show up at all on the 1st search. Instead a list of monsters and a few spells were the options. The definition should be the top of the list. Also, the page number since some people only have the books. In this example, blindsight is in Monster Manual on page 8. This would assist people when looking for information.
The search function on this site is almost useless for a lot of things, and only okay for everything else. And it’s honestly better than it used to be. I mean, this is the better search function. If you know that you have to adjust things after you search, and you know how to, then it’s a little more useful, but not everyone does. Sometimes it’s almost easier to go to google and search “ddb [search term]” instead.

I tend to use google more. It's a shame.
