hi,
i've been playing around with searching using a filter to grab sounds with certain licenses and having trouble getting it working.
I know my basic search query will return with all of the different types of licenses.  
When searching using a filter "Attribution" or "Attribution Noncommercial" everything works fine. 
But using "Creative Commons Zero" does't work.
After a little poking around i also discovered "Sampling+" ( not documented).  

I've tried a few variations but thought perhaps i should ask if anyone knows the field-name tag and to point out docs may need an update. Or i am missing something.
cheers

Hi Steph,

you're right, the docs are wrong. You should search for "Creative Commons 0" instead of "Creative Commons Zero". We will correct that mistake.
Moreover, Sampling+ is a legacy license which was used for old Freesound sounds. Since september 2011 we're moving to Attribution, Attribution Noncommercial and Zero. As some of the users have not changed the licenses of their sounds, some are still in Sampling+. We have not documented this license as it is "deprecated" and we do not want to "promote" it.


Thank you for pointing out this mistake,

cheers
frederic
