The Virtual Solar Observatory (VSO) enables scientists to query and download a wide range of solar data sets using a web interface, IDL or programmatically via an API. Because of the complex nature of the queries that are possible using the VSO, we have had to re-work the web client to enable complex searches without creating an overly cluttered or complex interface. The new interface is modular to allow us to more easily add new search parameters while allowing users to set defaults for their preferred search and download settings, minimizing the amount of complexity exposed. We describe the advantages of the new search interface, including the ability to bookmark searches, a streamlined query process, customized search interfaces for instruments with special needs, and improved performance.
