Just change the search filter by authors to the name of any existing player. (For example the same Roblox)

It works in all categories!


Expected Behavior

I’m expecting to get a list of assets created by a specific player.

Actual Behavior

I get a list of assets created by other players that are visible on the Marketplace main page

Just to add onto this as well it seems like after me checking that even if you click the “Roblox” creator who is there it still does not even filter for just Roblox.

Search API is the cause. I literally wanted to see Roblox’s assets and all I see were front-page items. I tried on mine too, and despite not having uploaded models yet I got the same results. Also happens on the Toolbox.

I already contacted Roblox thru email but it was fruitless. Has been happening since, I believe, July 15.

They always say the same exact thing every single time you contact them :man_facepalming:.

They told me to restart my PC, like that would do anything to the marketplace results :confused:.

The filter has broken so many times since it’s release. Not sure why it never works…

I’m late to the post, but I also noticed this around the same time as you! While we’re waiting for a fix, I’ve found that Roblox’s new creator marketplace (create.roblox.com/marketplace) Still works when filtering with well- basically the only filter we can add, username, however, the thumbnails seem to be very buggy.
