We Should Be Able To Search In More Than One Category At Once

Forum Help Forum Features

:warning: Only Developer Forum feature requests should be posted here.
Use #feature-requests for Roblox-related feature requests.

Be as specific as possible, give your post a clear and descriptive title, and focus on problems and use cases, rather than proposed solutions.

As a Roblox developer, it is currently too hard to find a topic I need help with, but the answer may be in more than one category, for example, I want to know how to make a typewriter effect, I would search in:

But, to do this currently I would need to search before in #help-and-feedback:scripting-support, then another time in #resources:community-tutorials, and then another time in #resources:community-resources, I would have to search 3 times for the same thing in 3 different categories

If Roblox is able to address this issue, it would improve my experience using the forum because I would be able to search the same topic over more than one category at once, thus saving time

Suggested Solution:
To the category selection thingie add an option to search in more than one category

I agree.

I believe that this is a feature that Discourse would need to implement rather than Roblox trying to implement this into the DevForum themselves. I recommend making a feature request in https://meta.discourse.org for this.

Okay, I’ll make one there if I can

You can already do this. To search a specific subcategory, type out the subcategory. To search multiple categories, place multiple categories into your search prompt.

First:
The automated way doesn’t have that, you can search only one thing
Second:
It searches only for the first, I just tried it
