Using advanced search for pages
The advanced search capability for pages allows you to filter through your content to quickly locate specific pages.
To begin, start by selecting the page type associated with the page(s) you are looking to find. This is done by clicking the dropdown arrow at the end of the search field.
From there, you can filter the results using any of the following field types:
- Short Text Field
- Long Text Field
- Reference Field
- Date Field
- Dropdown Field
- Media Field
- Checkbox Field
- Number Field
Pro tip: You can use Collections as filterable properties for your Pages. The simplest example would be to add Categories to your Pages for easier filtering.
