How do the new reviews work?

[Voadam]

I can't seem to figure out how to search the review database besides browsing all the pages of reviews for products that begin with the same letter or going from most recent backwards for all 79 pages of reviews in the database.

I'm trying to see any reviews on Sidewinder and with everything loading slowly I gave up after skimming several pages of the S products.

We used to be able to search by product name or publisher or reviewer or most recent etc. How do we do that now?

Perhaps I only have it because I have a community supporter account, but I found a "Search this category" drop-down over at the top right of the reviews page (about the same place you'd find the forum quick links button if you're browsing a forum).

I did a search on Sidewinder for you, too! There are too many links to list -- I think reviews that just mentioned the name came up. But here are two clearly labeled reviews:
Sidewinder: Recoiled
Sidewinder: Wild West Adventure
These are kind of old, though. That what you're looking for?

Thanks, that was a big help for my search. It is that first one. Paizo has the pdf on sale for 50% off thru sunday and I'm considering getting it.

It must be a community supporter thing. I can't find anything like that drop down menu, just a fairly useless one to view reviews in the category by author rating, review, review starter, last post, etc. I'm surprised at how unfriendly the review database is for casual users.

Hmm, using the category tool to view by review actually allows me to get them alphabetically by title. So that is a big help.
