If you enter the search field top right there usually is a checkbox saying which location you are searching in. When you go to advanced, you may have picked something else.
No, they were the same...
Alright, wait up. I just checked since I assumed the "normal" Search bar would have the same default settings as the "advanced" Search... And while the latter had "all forums (& child forums)" selected, the former has (by default) both "search this repository only" and "search resources only" checked.
I've never bothered to change this because (usually already being in the "Model" repository), it seemed like it should work fine ("Search [the model repository]" & "search resources only (of which 'models' are one)" = ..... OHHHHH dangit. AND means the intersection. No wait, yeah, intersection, that should still work. Besides, both are selected by default, so that must be correct for
something, I thought.
However, unchecking either one works to bring up precisely what I was looking for (and works for other things too, it seems). So what do those two do, and why are they True by default? Could just one be made the default?
//EDIT// - Having both set to True doesn't stop generic stuff (like "Troll") from bringing up plenty of options. But it feels like if I type in a word that is directly in the title it shouldn't be hard to find
