Why was the search constraints behavior changed?

[Matt C.]

This might have been asked before, but I couldn't find in my search.

In XenForo 1.x, the default search constraint was whatever page you on. If you were in resources, the default search constraint was resources, etc. In XenForo 2.x, the default search constraint is always "Everywhere."

Why was this changed in XenForo 2.x? It's very tedious to have to constantly change the search constraint.

Thank you.

It was changed based on feedback and support related issues, due to search results not being returned because the search was not performed everywhere.

That makes sense. Would be nice if there was an option to keep it as it was before. Thank you for the quick reply!
