Question: how to search just one category *or* subcategory?
-
I am primarily looking for torrents in one category (Wrestling)
--> I can select "Wrestling" in "Categories" and the search results show all torrents where the Main Category is identified as "Wrestling" ... but the results exclude all of the torrents where the Main Category is something else and "Wrestling" was tagged in the Subcategory.
--> I can separately search with none or all selected (or anything in between) in "Categories" and "Wrestling" selected in "Subcategories" which results in torrents where "Wrestling" is identified in the Subcategory (but no torrents with "Wrestling" in the Main Category).
QUESTION: Is there a way to search for a single category "Wrestling" no matter if it is a Main Category or a Subcategory?
(maybe this is easy to figure out, but after struggling with this for a while now, I've concluded I'm too stupid to figure out on my own and decided to finally ask here.)

take a look at this part of the search page:
notice that Match mode is set to Any, this is the default state. If you switch it to All, it will show torrents that contain the selected categories anywhere, irrespective of main or subcats.
How it works is quite intuitive. In the default mode (Any), suppose you select 2 categories: Wrestling and Voyeur. The search results will show all torrents that have either wrestling OR voyeur as the main category.
If you switch to "All" mode, the exact same search will now only show torrents that contain both categories, as either main or subcat.
If you select ONLY one category, like wrestling, and set the match mode to All, it will show all torrents that have that category anywhere, regardless of it being the main or a subcat.
