Learning new UX - blank Catalog Search no longer available

[CMezger]

With the new search in the new UX, a search for the entire catalogue can only be carried out if an "*" is entered in the search field. This represents a deterioration in user-friendliness.

In the previous search, it was possible to perform an empty search to display the entire catalogue by clicking on the magnifying glass symbol without entering anything.

Will the previous behaviour be made available again and is it planned in the roadmap?

Hello Amelie Fidric,

thank you for your feedback.
Unfortunately, not every customer uses the recommentations function and this does not replace the option of displaying the entire catalogue.
This function is required by us and the recommendations do not replace this function.

Will this function be available again?

Best Regards 

Conny

I have created a workaround with some generated direct links because I don't like the functionality of the new search function. 

First one is I added a button to the old library in the banner. 

I also these two search tools. We are directing our learners to use these instead of the blank search.

@DWurm, this is a great workaround. Can you share the steps to create these? i.e. how did you create the link behind the button/custom card to direct it to the blank search? 

Does anyone know if it's possible to Generate a Direct Link in Learning to a specific Source, without having to specify the Learning type first?  We want the direct link to be more broad.  Thanks.

I have the same requirement as @LilyL - we want to create deep links to our courses that are free first so use nothing but Source in the deep link. Thanks @DWurm, any instructions on how you generated that link will be good but will it work once the old homepage is no longer available?
