I’m guessing this is actually by design, but it is so wrong that I’m going to insist on calling it a bug.
When I enter ‘Enya’ in the Search field and select ‘Show More Results…’ it takes me to the full search results page.
But these aren’t full search results. I have 10 Enya albums, comprising 95 tracks. The full search results page only lists 30 tracks.
What’s the use of a full search results page if it doesn’t return everything that fits the search term?
This is likely to never be addressed, but I voted for it, because a 30 result cap is asinine.
Unfortunately, I have to agree with @TVPlexHD that it probably won’t ever be addressed. They’re too busy working on new features we don’t need to ever fix something as necessary as this. I’ve voted for it too anyway, because, yes, a cap on search results is frustrating for those of us trying to organise our libraries.
In PlexAmp this cap seems to be raised to 50. Still pretty arbitrary, of course.
The most ridiculous thing about this is the ease with which it could be addressed: A “more results” button. Return 30 results, put “more results” button below the results.
Search is completely different in Plex Web than when this topic was orignally made. I mean at https://app.plex.tv , you might still be seeing old one if using the local web app. The full page results is a continuous scroll and there are filters the top. What sort of thing are you searching for?
