Webflow recently introduced two new features that enhance the process of finding Collection Items in the Designer and CMS. These features greatly improve the efficiency and ease of managing content in Webflow. Let's take a look at each feature and how they can benefit users:
- Quick Find:
- Quick Find is a search feature that allows users to quickly locate specific Collection Items within the Designer or CMS.
- This feature is accessible through a keyboard shortcut (Ctrl/Cmd + K) or by clicking on the Quick Find icon in the toolbar.
- By typing a few letters or words related to the desired item, Quick Find instantly filters the list of Collection Items to display only the relevant results.
- This saves time and effort, especially for websites with a large number of Collection Items, as it eliminates the need to manually scroll through the list to find the desired item.
- Filtering and Sorting:
- The new filtering and sorting options offer enhanced control over the organization and display of Collection Items.
- Users can now filter and sort Collection Items based on various criteria, such as field values, status, creation date, and more.
- The filtering options allow users to refine the list of Collection Items, making it easier to focus on specific subsets of content.
- Sorting options enable users to order Collection Items based on specific criteria, such as alphabetically, chronologically, or by custom field values.
- This flexibility in organizing and arranging content makes it easier to navigate and manage large collections of data within the Webflow Designer or CMS.
These two new features, Quick Find and filtering/sorting options, significantly improve the workflow and productivity for Webflow users. They streamline the process of finding and managing Collection Items, making content updates and edits faster and more efficient.
