The wet_quickopen plugin for Textpattern adds a ‚Recent Articles‘ list to the article edit screen with a search term input field.
This list is filtered by matching the search term against the titles and bodies of all articles, ordered by descending posting date. Simply type your search term and wait a moment for the ‚Recent Articles‘ list to refresh.
wet_quickopen requires a jQuery-supported browser with JavaScript enabled.
Installation
- Textpattern 4.9+ is required, wet_quickopen will eventually not work with any prior version.
- Install wet_quickopen.txt as a Textpattern plugin.
- Install wet_quicklink’s sidekick wet_peex.txt as a Textpattern plugin.
- Done. If all went well, the „Content > Write“ screen will be graced by a new „Recent Articles“ list with a search box at the top.
