Searching Books

Hello, it's been months, maybe a year since I last used Calibre, because of work and family stuff I stopped reading books so I stopped using it. And now I wanted to add some books and read some.

Now, I have a stupid problem. I search stuff, specific books or Authors or even tags / genres I've added over the years of using Calibre back then, but the search results are always showing as marked green in the whole collection of my books.

What I mean is when I search for example the tag "adventure" (or click on it) it's not just showing me the books tagged "Adventure" it shows every book I have and just if I scroll down I can find the tagged books marked green.

I remember when I was searching Calibre with tags or authors or clicking on the left any tag or whatever to show only those, not everything I own with just the selected search highlighted green.

Please help. I know it's stupid but I can't find the way to have specific results. What am I doing wrong?

It's easily fixed, see this sticky thread - Some plugins, can change calibre's search highlighting
