Type of Enhancement

Web Interface/Frontend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

Currently when you use the search function you get a maximum of 12 results for books/audiobooks, and the limitation also persists for authors, narrators.. and all other searchable categories.

i'm not sure how the prioritization works is since it keeps showing the same 12 books, even if i have 100 books with the letter "e" and i search for "e" then i get the same 12 books

Why would this be helpful?

If i am searching for a phrase in a title it would be best to show all the results that contain the queried word

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

/

Audiobookshelf Server Version

v2.17.7

Current Implementation (Screenshot)
