So I have some categories that have one-word titles, e.g., “Foo”, and also categories that have more than one word, e.g., “Foo Bar”.

The following works for constraining search results to a category:  
`category:Foo` or [https://discourse.example.org/search?q=category%3AFoo](https://discourse.example.org/search?q=category%3AFoo)

The following does not work:  
`category:Foo Bar` or [https://discourse.example.org/search?q=category%3AFoo%20Bar](https://discourse.example.org/search?q=category%3AFoo%20Bar)

Meta repro:  
`category:discourse hub` or [Search results for 'category:discourse hub' - Discourse Meta](https://meta.discourse.org/search?q=category%3Adiscourse%20hub)

I was doing this because I wanted to put a hyperlink to such a query to show the unsolved topics in my support category, but can’t because that category has multiple words. 🙂

You need to use underscores:  
`category:discourse_hub` or `https://meta.discourse.org/search?q=category%3Adiscourse_hub`

I don’t know why it doesn’t use the hyphens that the categories use in URL view, but I tried underscores because that’s what some other things use in Discourse and it worked. 🙂
