The admin control panel has a Filter gadget you can use when looking at data lists. This helpful tool lets you find things fast. You simply type words into the filter box, and the system immediately shows only items with titles or descriptions containing those words. The Filter works right away - you don't need to press any buttons after typing. For example, if you type "user," the list will shrink to show just items with "user" somewhere in their name or description. You can also check the Prefix option if you want to see only items that start with your search words. This makes searching even more specific when you need it.
The system comes with a cancel button that clears everything and brings back all your items. When you click this button, any words you typed disappear, and the Prefix option turns off. This returns your list to how it looked before you started filtering. The Filter gadget saves you time because you don't need to scroll through long lists of information. You can quickly narrow down what you see based on words that matter to you. Many admins use this feature every day to manage their forums faster. The Filter works the same way across different parts of the control panel, making it easy to remember how to use it wherever you go.
