Ka3m0n Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 When using advanced search on Skyrim Nexus, I tried to search for all mods by a specific author. The results were wrong. I then tried putting the author's name in the next textbox below the author search textbox (Uploader name contains) and it worked fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrakeTheDragon Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 It's not much help, but keep in mind "author" is a free-text input field in mod uploads. Anything can be written into it and no uploader has to enter it right or truthfully.I for one wouldn't even dare searching by this. "Uploader" on the other hand is bound to the actual account creating the download page, and as such far more reliable.Though the uploader is not always the same as the author, so some files from a certain author can only be found when searching for the right uploader, especially when the uploader didn't enter the author name correctly or at all.
