I was testing for #308, and thought my tags weren't working for a minute, until I realised that I needed to prepend '#' to search by a tag. As the tags are created in without '#' (and # used just as a visual identifier), would it be possible to make the search a little more flexible, and accept searching by the tag with or without the prepended '#'?

It did work like that initially, then I changed it to require a hashtag because it was suggested to do so for more accurate results based on game name or tag only.

If I do as you suggested in #308 and make it an even wider search by adding other fields, then I'll revert this back to not requiring the hashtag.

I've made some improvements to the quick search that I hope can satisfy everyone. Here's a current rundown.

  • Improved quick search (Main Window and Game Manager)
    • The default quick search is now wide, using most text fields and tags.
      • These fields currently include: Name, Process, Parameter, Path, Version, Company, Comments.
    • You can now do a refined quick search by prepending it with the field name and a colon. Ex. Name:Doom or Company:Sega
    • A refined tag search is still supported by prepending with a hashtag, Ex. #GOG
    • You cannot combine refined searches in a single quick search, use the "Custom Filter" on the Game Manager for complex queries.
