Searching between the "browse" category (search type = wishlist + group) ?

Hi, guys!

Here on SteamGifts I have half a dozen "search types" that often include multiple choices, like wishlist+level6, 2 minimum copies+wishlist and so on..
But between the "browse" categories on the left side (i.e.: recommended, new, group etc.) I can't manage to make a combined search to put in my bookmarks!

I'd like more specifically to be able with a single search string to search for games that are found both in my Steam wishlist AND in my groups/whitelist.
When I try to combine search?type=group and search?type=wishlist, I always get redirected to the first one, groups/whitelist or wishlist.. and if I put some character wrong I get redirected to the main page directly.

Is there a way to get this thing done or the search parameters are "limited" to level min/max, copies number, point numbers, DLCs and so on?
Sorry for being so dumb in informatics and computer programming, thanks a lot xD

I'm afraid the search you mention is mutually exclusive, as suggested by the fact that it's based on the same parameter ('type'). So unless additional functionality is added it's simply not possible.

For other URL parameters, see this thread. I also suggest using the plugin ESGST which includes a ton of features including customized search options.

perfect, thanks a lot for the thorough explanation! I really know little about informatics and parameters, so now everything's completely clear and I'll check out the plugin and thread too :)
