TS Search Slug

Description

With this plugin you can search posts for their slug and their post id, see the slug and post id in admin post overview in an additional column and sort by them.

For searching multiple Post IDs in the search field, you can separate them with “,”, in example “36723,298525,3732”.

And you can see an overview of all pages which are tagged with post states, and quick switch to them.
For that, you must switch to the page overview and klick the button to open the list.

Please keep in mind, this is a hobby project and I need some time to respond.
I’m always open to suggestions for improvement.

Please contact me over the support forum on the plugin page on issues.

This plugin adds what should have been included as the most basic search feature in wordpress:It lets you search for a page by… wait for it… By it’s URL!If you manage a large WP site and have ever been on a page and need to find it in the page listing (like to change it’s name or URL) this plugin lets you simply type in the URL of the page and it finds the page in your wordpress admin panel. It saves SO much time. I’ve been looking for a plugin like this for years. Finally, here it is. Thanks for creating something so useful!

Finally a plug-in that adds an essential feature that should’ve been in WordPress from the start in the first place: sort pages by slug. Astonishingly, WordPress doesn’t allow us to sort pages by slug. Instead, it offers the ability to sort by Title – which is absolutely useless. After all, Title is just a SEO-formatted commercial blurb that is totally irrelevant for meaningful sort order. One note: If you’re using the Admin Columns plug-in, you’ll need to add the Postname/Slug column manually in the plug-in settings.
