I have a suggestion for excluding oneshots when searching for series. There have been many times when I'm looking for a good series to get into and I have to go through a lot of oneshots before I find a story that lasts longer. Much appreciated. And thanks for the wonderful site. 😀

I believe this is something that's part of the filter when searching for manga. There's 4 radio buttons before you hit submit or search and one of them says to exclude oneshot and one to include oneshots (and the other 2 are for whether to have incomplete/going series and if include only series that are entirely scanslated). Although when I used it last time, I think it included when it wasn't suppose to (yep, a bug).

It could also be a problem with the series entry itself. The filter feature is based on a word search string through the series database under the "Status in Country of Origin" and "Completely Scanlated?" sections of a series info page. If those entries are incorrect, then the search feature would also be correct.
