Improve the Search Engine

I love using your tool first of all. I've used it quite a lot in my D&D campaigns and I also have used it a lot to borrow maps from others since, lets be honest, sometimes we don't have the time or energy to make our own makes. The cloning feature is great for that. But I think your website falls short in the search engine department. It could use more filters for one, such as what map packs were used. I think the most glaring issue for me is that I can't search for cloneable maps while at the same time filtering by style. It's either one or the other for some reason? So if I need a battlemap that I can clone, I have to either search with the battlemap filter and sift through the results until I find a cloneable one, or filter by cloneable and sift through the results looking for a battlemap. It's very unintuitive. On top of that, I'm not sure if I'm just wrong, but it often seems like the search engine doesn't always display all results. I'm not sure if its just me, but I feel like when I search "Evil Temple" in the search bar, and filter by battlemaps, I would probably get more than three results, so I don't know what's up there. But yea, other than that, great tool, just need to work on that engine more. Thanks!

The problem lies with tagging, or more precisely, the fact that there is no tagging. The only thing that goes into the search is the map title. There are certainly a lot of evil temples out there, but as long as they are not titled "Evil Temple", you cannot search for them efficently.

Adding visibility on the "cloneable" filter, it makes little sense to chose between an art style and the cloneable attribute.
