DeepcatSearch is a JavaScript gadget that adds two tabs to a category page to search for files in the category and its sub-categories. You can enable it in your preferences here.

  • Deepcat🖼️ links to MediaSearch results (gallery-like)
  • Deepcat🔍 links to classic Search results (snippet)

The first button can be used to browse files in a category and its subcategories with a wall-of-images view like e.g. Google Images has it so you don't have to go through many subcategories, each with small thumbnails, and can just scroll through the previews.

Sometimes the search returns no or partial results because of this problem. You can change "deepcategory" to "incategory" to view files directly in the category (not in any subcategory).
