  The new search within a store is not helping buyers and can be long winded. If
you want to search a store for all pieces in a certain colour you could spend
quite a bit of time on it. As when you open up the more filters section it shows
all colours not the colours that the store has to offer. So if you want to look
for all Dark Green pieces you select that colour and lo and behold the store
doesn't have any - in the past the navigation pane on the left hand side
showed the colours that the store had available - that ne4eds to be brought back
- it has been eliminated in the new search.

This falls in line with other suggestions concerning highlighted categories etc.

Bring back the old method or change the new method so their is a subject of colours
in store available. It makes life so much easier for a buyer if they are looking
for pieces in a particular colour for a project.

To me the new search system is an improvement. So I don't see all the negativism
about BL 2.0

Yes the wanted list is a mess, they should fix that. But otherwise, I don't
find it too bad.

It's still there, simply click on "By Color" next to "By Category".
The old store search also let you search for colors that the store didn't
have.
The main difference now is that several links are not noticeable as links.
Did you know that you can click on the headings (Sets, Parts...) in a store?
