Search bar in Dashboard to filter Articles

[madzadev]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

For users with lots of articles, it is impossible to filter the articles based on a keyword in the dashboard.
Let's say I have 500 articles and I specifically need to access all the articles with 'AWS' in the title. Currently, I would need to go through all 10 pagination pages (50 per view) and do ctrl+f on each of them (as I can't change how many articles are shown on 1 page, either). And, even if there would be an option to display 500 in one view, you should most likely use dynamic loading, so ctrl+f won't work either.
Furthermore, using the general site search would work only on published articles and would filter efficiently only with like the whole title being queried. And what if I need to search for unpublished 'AWS' articles in the dashboard? 👀

Describe the solution you'd like

Search bar next to the current dropdown filter (recently created, published, and most views, reactions, comments) that dynamically filters the results as I start typing letters in it would be awesome! 🔥

Any updates on this? 👀
Just the fact, the more I use DEV the more I need it 😀😀

Hi @madzadev. We haven't evaluated this feature request. Thanks, for following up!

[ludwiczakpawel]

I think it would be a great addition to Dashboard!

[benhalpern]

Yeah, this makes sense. Fits alongside the existing filter feature set nicely.

@nickytonline @ludwiczakpawel @benhalpern thanks for your responses 🙏❤

@nickytonline @ludwiczakpawel @benhalpern, added the potential RFC label to thins. Let me know if this is something we should pursue as a team.

[nickytonline]

I definitely see this as a potential RFC.

We are currently thinking through the dashboard holistically to improve some of those things. I'm not sure yet where we are going to end up but I am going to cc: @ludwiczakpawel to be aware of this discussion and put this in the "up next" area as we are committed to working on dashboard soon.

[madzadev]

Thanks for bumping this @JennieOcken 💯👍
Still would love to see this implemented! Actually thought about this yesterday when browsing my drafts 😀😀

I also think it would be very useful to filter articles in the dashboard by some search-term. I'd add it might be also useful to be able to filter the article by series. e.g. a drop-down list of all the series a person has and when a series is selected only articles in that series would be shown.
