    Hoe to search specific node into Backoffice?

    Hi to all,
    I have a problem when I try to search a node into backoffice.

    I would to find a specific node quickly (I have the node id).

    I tried to use the search form field at the top left of the page of umbraco but I didn't find it.

    How can I search quickly a node having the node id?

    Thank you in advance

    Adriano

    Hi Adriano!

    You're right - that doesn't work for me either. It would be a cool feature if the backoffice search would look at what's entered in the search field and if it's only four digits, it would search for nodes using the ID.

    What I do now is I open up the site tree, let the mouse pointer wander over the pages and look at the ID's in the lower left corner of my browser where it displays the links, for example: javascript:openContent(1115) and so on. Crude but it works on smaller sites.

    Regards,
    Thomas Kahn

    Hi Adriano,

    If you know the node id, and just need to edit the content ... the quickest and crudest way is to use this URL:

    { your domain } /umbraco/editContent.aspx?id= { node id }

     

    Alternatively, you could try the Content Maintenance Dashboard Package package?

    Cheers, Lee.

    I believe Id search is already possible... 

    Id:1234

    Hi Casey!

    Yes! Cool!
    One small improvement would be to make it case insensitive. Now only "Id" works, not "ID" or "id".

    Thanks for the info!

    The "Id" field-name is case-sensitive, as that is how it is named in the Lucene index.

    Currently there is no getting around it - well, maybe if you wrote some JavaScript to hi-jack the request, parse out the "/id:(\d{4})/" and TitleCase it before the query?  But that is way way overkill! ;-)

    I cant get search on id to work..

    For instance "Id:1078" gives no results in 4.72.
    Whereas 1078 is a published node.

    Any ideas?

    Hey, we were just trying to do the same thing and noticed it doesn't work anymore either (4.11.4).

    Does anyone have updated information on this?

    Anders, you can search using "*1078" (without the quotes) to do a global search. You will get more than just the one content node, you will also get any other content in which "1078" appears. Hope this helps.

    Im using umbraco v7.5 and it seems that you cant use *1078 to do a search as it gives an error message but searching without the * and without the Id= parameter just typing the number 1078 seems to work.
