Different shares for different hubs.
Search terms highlighted.

Also already in the Feature Request Tracker:
[ 657143 ] Specify shares based on hub.

:) There are programs that have all sorts of features, and if you see something that you think might be nice in DC++, go ahead and search for it, then post it. It's appreciated, as "we" (programmers in general) don't try every application.

It's not impossible, few feature requests are. However, that doesn't mean it's easy... For instance, per-hub shares are a big architectural change, because DC++ was designed around the concept of one set of files for the share. It's abstracted just enough so that we could rip out the ShareManager and replace it, and drop hints bout which search request came from which hub (so it would know the proper hub to search)... It's a lot of work to code and test correctly, and I think there are some more interesting features to code. ;-)
