היי חברים

זה יהיה נהדר אם כל או חלק מתכונות המנהלים והמודיםprocedures (כמו תוספים, הגדרות, רכיבי ערכת נושא וכו’) יהיו נגישות באמצעות חיפוש רגיל

בעיקרון זה יוסיף תכונה כזו של “מיקוד או שורת פקודה” לחיפוש בפורום.

זה יחסוך הרבה זמן למנהלים ולמודים שלנו כדי שלא יצטרכו לנווט דרך תפריטי ההנהלה כדי למצוא דברים ספציפיים.

Have you tried the search on the admin settings? They search the setting name, description, and value. It already does what you’re asking, best I can tell.

Sorry I was referring not to specific admin/site\_settings, but rather having a quick access to admin operations or reports via the core search feature.

Our use case is to quickly get access to: create new group, new category, review queue, house ads, ads and about 10 theme components where we regularly change settings

The new admin sidebar has a nifty filter that more and more things are being added to. Not individual settings, etc as yet, but it’s interesting to see where they take it.

`admin sidebar enabled groups`

Can you elaborate on this feature? I cannot find such a filter after enabling admin\_sidebar\_enabled\_groups

or are you referring to custom sections?

The announcement topic is here, though it’s in active development and things are changing reasonably frequently:

> [@Introducing admin sidebar navigation](https://meta.discourse.org/t/introducing-experimental-admin-sidebar-navigation/289281):
>
> mega Update: The old admin top navigation has been officially deprecated and removed in the 3.4 release. The sidebar navigation has seen huge improvements lately and, going forward, is the only way to navigate the Discourse admin. We have been working internally on some changes around how the navigation structure will work in the admin areas of Discourse. The first part of this work is introducing an admin sidebar. It looks like this:

The filter is at the top of the sidebar in the `/admin` section (so not the main site sidebar).

Is that also part of 3.2 stable or 3.3 beta? I have admin\_sidebar\_enabled\_groups enabled, but don’t see any filter at thet top of the sidebar.

I don’t think the filter will be part of `stable` as the feature is quite new.

It’s interesting that you get the first portion of the experimental feature to check out on `stable`, though it’s a shame you’ll have to wait for the rest. Think of it as a teaser. 🙂

This is exactly what we are heading towards; it’s interesting that you mention “spotlight” because that is one of our inspirations, as well as Wordpress and Squarespace:

As Jammy mentioned, we already have a filter for the links in the sidebar, but:

Just another UI suggestion: For a future release it would be epic to simply have a hover “star” on each admin menu item to pin the item at the top of the admin sidebar and regular sidebar for future quick access.

here is a mockup:

I’ve thought of this idea too when we implemented the sidebar, before we even had an admin sidebar. It would be so nice to have an easy way to add links to the sidebar.

We went in a different direction with “custom sidebar sections”, which can be added using the ➕ button in the sidebar footer. This is not yet supported for the admin sidebar but we’ve talked about it.

What admin links would you add to such a custom sidebar, and which would you want available both on the main sidebar and the admin sidebar? And why?

I think every case is different here. We have some specific TC’s which we keep editing to add some extra markup for advertisement and sponsoring clients, then we add new groups and want a shortcut for that plus muting some categories for clients’ sponsored categories which are supposed to stay online but should not show in search.
