FAQ: Search

The BarbiePedia search engine is an essential tool to search the content of the Barbiepedia web portal.

There are several search engines on the web:

• Barbie universe catalog search engine.
There are two search engines for the catalog. One is the magnifying glass in the top menu and another is found when accessing the catalog.
• Search by type of the Barbie catalog.
• Filter search for the Barbie catalog.
• BarbiePedia blog search engine.
• Barbie character sheet search engine.
• Barbie collection search engine.

The identification section does not have a search engine and will not have one, it is a very visual section with enough menus to move around easily.

To use the search engine in the main menu, you have to click on the magnifying glass and write what you are looking for and click the search button.
Then the results that match your search will appear.

To use the search engine that appears in the dolls section and the playsets section, you have to write what you are looking for in the "product to search" field and click the search button.
Then the results that match your search will appear.

You can search by name, original name, year, etc.

For searches to be efficient, do not enter more than two words and try to be as direct as possible, for example, if you want to search for a veterinary Barbie, type the word veterinary in the search engine, Do not enter too many words, the search engine has limitations and the ideal is not to enter more than two words. Whenever possible, it is ideal to limit your search to one word. Try to avoid searching for Barbie + whatever, this makes the search difficult, let's think that it is a Barbie catalog, this word will appear in most results, We try to search by keywords, such as the most important word in the collection to which the doll belongs or a word that belongs to the doll's name, this will increase your success in your search results.
Let's think that the search engine is not Google and it does not have 3405894908 developers behind it who have created a fabulous search engine that we cannot match from here not even with a thousand hours of work, basically because Google has been developing for many years and even today we can't always find what we want...

To use the search by type you have to select the type of item you are looking for.

• Doll
• Playset and Doll
• Playset
• Other
• For you

There are 5 options and you have to select which one you want and only the results of that type will be shown.

This is the most complex search engine. You can filter the dolls and dolls by different characteristics they have. For example, due to their race, hair color, clothing, etc.
You can display them depending on the Body, Head, Clothes, Accessories....
It is a limited filter, you can choose a filter to narrow your searches, you cannot choose several filters at the moment, programming this is very complex and the development of other sections of the website has been prioritized.

To use the blog's search engine you only have to enter one or two words relevant to what you are looking for. The search engine is not like Google, do not enter phrases or it will not give you results. Enter a maximum of two words or it will probably return that it has not found anything related to your search.

To use the Barbie character sheet search engine, you just have to write the name of the character in the box and click the search button. Just enter the name, you do not need to enter the full name or surname. The search engine only offers exact searches, if you enter different information it will not return the result.

If, for example, you want to search for the character who is Barbie's father, put George, avoid putting too many words, don't put more than two words.

To use the Barbie collections search engine you have to enter the name of the collection. Try to use the minimum number of words. The search engine only returns exact searches, Therefore, it is advisable to use the most relevant word in the collection name whenever possible.

An example of a search could be, if you search for Barbie Beach, just type the word Beach.
