Set Up Your Searches

Once installed, go to the Admin page and find “Quick Search” under “Other” list. Click to open the Quick Search configuration page from here.

Quick Search configuration is very intuitive and easy to manage. Refer to the image below. Check “All Fields” to enable this feature for all fields for a module, or select specific fields from the list of any or all modules depending on the usage and significance.

Don’t forget to hit the “Save” button once all necessary selections are made.

Next, go to any of the modules where Quick Search is selected in configuration from Admin. See the search box on the top of each column selected in Quick Search configuration. For example, in the image of Contacts module below, users can now search by first name or title.
