Couple of glitches in the classifieds

[mft]

1. If you filter your car list with a keyword (say, 'GTI') and then move to the maps tab, the label above the map stating 'match in title: GTI' remains, but the map view shows all cars in the model subsection, not just the filtered subset.

2. Again, if you filter your car list with a keyword, and then order the cars by 'Price (Low-High)', it does something weird whereby the premium adverts are displayed first, in low-high order, but are then followed by a low-high ordered list of more expensive standard adverts, to the bottom of the first page. From the second page onwards, they are displayed as you'd expect.

This is a bug, and we will look into it as part of another project we are working on and will hopefully fix for end of next month.

This is (in the words of Microsoft when you look at their bugs) by design. To give the premium adverts more prominence they take precedence in any filtering over the standard free adverts. Though this is something we are reviewing at the moment.

I think what it's doing is putting the blue 'standard adverts' title bar in the wrong place - on the link above, it's between a premium advert priced at £1699 and a premium advert priced at £1795. It then appears again in the correct place, on page 2.

Well spotted! The blue bar appears whenever a premium advert has a standard advert below it. In this case, a standard advert has somehow found its way amongst the premium adverts, generating a second blue bar.
