@bi4smooth That doesn't address the question, it's about categories rather than search terms. Category searches seem to perform an OR match rather than an AND match (the latter makes more sense to the OP and myself). It would be nice if the term search gave a way to search for the categories using AND, OR, and NOT.
I see - you're referring to the "check boxes" in the Search page -- BEFORE you put in the search criteria...
I'm not sure how you would make that user-friendly... most of our users are not Computer Scientists familiar with the differences in the LOGICAL (not the English) AND, OR, NOT, and XOR...
I DO agree with you that it would be nice if the search bar itself had more advanced search features... like the ability to use a - to indicate that you should exclude a string...
So, for example: "OnlyFans -Reno" would search for OnlyFans, but exclude results that had Reno
Sadly, our search engine isn't that advanced - or if it is, I don't know how to use it properly... (The syntax above works in Google š )
