Hey
+1When you go to a category (People, for example) and search terms in the top bar, then hit “view all” - you get results from the full community.
People only has 173 topics, but when you go to “view all” you get 400 or so (depending on what you searched for). Maybe it should be assumed that “view all” means results from everywhere in the community, but I’ve found that member assume the category still stands as a filter. I’ve explained that they can narrow down the “view all” by selecting the category from the left hand menu.
