CodeFaeries QuickFind – Instant Admin Search

CodeFaeries QuickFind adds a search field to the admin bar, opened with Ctrl+K (Cmd+K on Mac). One query searches:

• Posts, pages and custom post types (drafts and scheduled posts included) you are allowed to edit
• Admin menu and submenu pages, filtered by your capabilities
• Installed plugins, jumping straight to each plugin’s settings page
• Core settings screens (administrators only)

It works alongside WordPress’s native Command Palette rather than replacing it: the palette runs commands and navigates; QuickFind searches your actual content, plugins and settings. When the native palette is present, QuickFind automatically uses Ctrl+Shift+K so the two never collide.

Results are grouped, keyboard-navigable (arrows + Enter) and respect user capabilities everywhere.

Settings

Settings → QuickFind:

• Enable or disable each search source
• Restrict which post types are searched
• Maximum results per group, minimum query length, typing delay
• Choose the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+K, Ctrl+Shift+K, Alt+K, Ctrl+/ or disabled)
