[Feature request] search in site manager

#1 Post by DrLightman » 2015-10-21 11:48

Hello, with so many folders and sites, sometimes it's really hard to find what you're looking for. Sometimes it's not even there and you've manually scanned all the entries... awww.

Could you implement a live search feature which filters auto not-matching results as you type in by site name?

Please take a look at the attached screenshot.

Thank you very much.

If it helps, you can already search by prefix by simply beginning to type after opening the site manager.

It seems cluncky.

I have many folders and when I type "d" for instance, it stops at selecting a folder starting with "d", it doesn't look for sites starting with "d" in every folder.

My desire would be, for example in an installation having these in site manager:
folderA
- fooaaa
- foobbb
- fooccc
folderB
- fooaax
- foobbx
- fooccx
folderC
- fooaaz
- foobbz
- fooccz
Typing "oob" in the search input would result the window below showing only:
- foobbb
- foobbx
- foobbz
Reference to the parent folder(s) may be omitted or printed somehow, but it's not important.
