Are there any special search terms to help me find levels faster?
There are some special search terms that can be used in the Search Text option that will help you find the level you desire. You can read more about finding cool levels in the Community Levels section of the Game Guide.
Search Text
The Search Text option allows you to type in some words and search the LittleBigPlanet for levels, just like you could search the internet for a cheese emporium or something of that ilk. Like the internet, there are special search terms you can use to refine your search and better help you find the things you were looking for…
Search everything
Just enter some text and hit search and your POD will search far and wide for all levels containing your text – and it will look at level names, level descriptions and creator names.
Search for a Creator
Putting @ before your search words will restrict the search to looking at creator names. For instance type @LittleXim to look for levels by LittleXim
Search for words in Level Title only
To search for words in Level Title only, put a $ in front of the search word . For example, to search for levels with ‘ramp’ in the Level Title type: $ramp
Search for exact words
To search for exact words, use single quotation marks, like this: ‘ramp’
So this would look for only ramp. Not ram, ranp, rampy or Peter Frampton
Search for phrases only
To search by phrase, say, ‘The Mighty Tower of Ultimate Doom’, use double quotes, like this:
“The Mighty Tower of Ultimate Doom”
This will search only the Level Title & Level Description for exactly that phrase.
Combine Searches
You can also combine these searches for great justice.
