Content management filter by keyword?

iantresman - April 7, 2008 - 20:43

1. In Content management > Content, ie, at /drupal/admin/content/node
... I can filter nodes by Status, Type and Category.
Is there a way to filter by keyword, ie. show nodes containing a specified keyword.

2. And is there an easy way to display more than 50 nodes per page? (in Content management > Content)

...

Use the 'Views' module instead.

You can 'expose' a search filter. And various modules, e.g. 'views bulk operations', let you tick nodes and carry out actions on them.

(This was meant to be a reply, but I seem to have hit the edit button)

Further to your help, this is now solved. It requires:

  • Taxonomy Node Operations which adds the ability to assign terms to nodes in content management (and the new Views version of content management)
  • The Views module which allows for customized views of various pages
  • Views Bulk Operations which provides the ability to add checkboxes, and a drop-down with available operations.
  • The Views Bulk Operations modules requires a new page view to be added, after which, a new Content page becomes available at admin/content/node2. It is then required to select the Override tab in order to configure the new Views content page. I then added:
    • In the Filters section, Add new filter, "Search: Index", and then make it "Exposed". This enables filtering by any word anywhere
    • And then add and expose the "Node: Title" filter, which enables filtering by keywords contained in the Node title.
    • I also changed the "Nodes per Page:" from 10 to 100 so I can could easily select all filtered nodes, before assigned a new category term.
