Is it just me, or the gallery filter system sucks so bad?

I don't know if it the new system the sims have going on or a glitch that I can't find some older popular builds. For whatever reason my latest game was reset and I lost the households I was playing and some of the lots I got from the gallery. So, I was searching for the ones that I used to liked, like say I was looking for a skydeck restaurant to replace the stargazer lounge in San Myshuno, I couldn't find it at all even when I filtered it with specific lots size and type. And it used to be popular too. Also, I did a 64x64; Park, Most popular  filter and it said "Object couldn't be found"....

  • @AHOTTESTMOOMOO Hi!  Sorry you lost some of your stuff, that really sux! :-(  I agree the filtering system could use some work.  For one thing, I don't know why "sort by" eliminates shared items from view.  They should all still be listed, just sorted by the criteria selected.  Anyway, I did a search for a "skydeck" 40x30 restaurant lot and only found one; searched by newest, most popular and popular now.  Is this the one you were looking for to replace Stargazer? 

    As for the park lot, do you remember any other details about it; name, features, etc.?  Also, are you absolutely certain it was 64x64?

    Hi, thank you for your reply. And no it's not the one I was looking for.  It was like a romantic outdoor dinner i don't remember specific name, but it definitely made for the the "Stargazer Lounge" replacement. I couldn't find it anymore sadly. As I've said, the sort by system is so bad now. I was searching for a park for San Myshuno's park replacement, i did the park, 64x64, Most popular, and it didn't give me ANY result. But, it's fine now I just downloaded the new builds. I just which the sort system os back to how it used to. I really liked the restaurant but yeah.  Appreciate your assistance  🙏

    Yeah, I tried last night and apparently there are no items with the word "Jewish" in the name, despite my having uploaded two myself.  :P

    [edited to add] I just tried again and it's working now, so maybe it was a glitch?

    @fp20351 Rats!  Sorry you're not able to find them.  The filter system definitely seems a bit broken.  I noticed "sort by" in players' catalogues doesn't remove any items from view.  It sorts by Newest and Most Popular by putting them in order respectively, as it should when searching the main gallery.  Hopefully the devs will read this and work on fixing it.

    The problem seem to be the "MOST POPULAR" category.
