Is there a way to restrict your search to one category?

    Similarly, can you restrict the search to posts with a particular tag?

    Hi Edward , by default, the search is global across all categories and tags. It can customized for your community through our support team. Contact support@forumbee.com . Thank you!

    On your website's Plans page, what does it mean "Search across the community or specific forums?" (screenshot attached) Is that different than searching within a category?

      Hi Edward , this is referring to search capability in the Admin area. (Forums means categories.)

    Thanks! Which is why it's listed under Administrative features :-)   Sorry I missed that. Follow up question: Search seems more powerful for admins (Moderate tab) than users in the community, since admins can filter to a specific category or to a specific status of topics. Are there plans to make a more powerful search available to users? Related question: any plans to index the content of replies for search?

    Could this search restriction be added as a global option or for each category to have the search global or local.

    Or maybe just a tag in the search bar where you enable / disable a local search within the current category?
