The Etsy marketplace has rolled out some improvements to search, it announced on Monday. The Search dropdown menu choice has been made persistent. Previously, when performing a search under Vintage for example, the search dropdown menu would switch back to Handmade after clicking to view an item in the search results. The dropdown menu choice is now persistent when searching under Handmade, Vintage, Supplies or All Items. The Search result sort order has also been made persistent.

Etsy will remember users' preferences for sorting search results for the length of their session on Etsy.com, or until they decide to change it. A price filter has also been added to search results for Materials.
Etsy's CTO Chad Dickerson also posted a progress report on the Etsy Blog on Monday.
