Thank you for your feedback.   To better understand community member search preferences, we conducted a survey assessing community search scope preferences.  A majority of respondents said that they prefer to search the entire Community Center by default.  Based on this feedback, the search box within each community will continue to default to a full community search.  Community members who prefer to search only a single community can select “this community” from the community search drop down menu.  

Please continue to review and submit enhancement suggestions. We appreciate your request.

Hello,

When browsing a specific Product Community, the default search scope is to search "All Communities" rather than the Community that the user has selected. Since the user has already made the choice to browse a specific Community, it follows that the search box would be scoped to query that Community by default.

I'm suggesting that the default search scope for all individual Product Communities be changed to search "This Community" instead of "All Communities." 

Thanks!
Alli
