Thanks very much for your reply!

This inspired me to go ahead and build my own search plugin as a creative endeavor, with some REST fetching and fuzzy search on the client side ??

Appreciate ya,

Good to know and I just read the article about the Command Palette (published today!).

I hope it’s not just a Block Editor thing and that it’ll work in the Dashboard. Classic Editor user here. And I also really appreciate that you allow the user to define the shortcut (I prefer Cmd+J coming from Basecamp, which has a similar function).

Short term: Is there a JS object that you store the ‘scraped titles and URLs’ in, that I could ‘add to’ with a little REST API magic or something?

No worries if not. I know this is a free plugin, critically underinstalled (no idea why, I love it), so I’m not expecting you to go to town on it ??

Or…is there an object where I can do this without you having to do anything ??

Ah, I see.

This is cool and I can see you put a lot of work into the feature, but I would love to be able to just…type the title of my destination (page, post) into the initial search without having to do an ‘additional query’.

I can understand having this ‘not be the default,’ but for a site with a dozen pages and a couple dozen blog posts, I don’t imagine it’d impose too big a burden on the index.

Have you considered allowing users to add these searchable post instances to the initial index? Or a feature where a specific admin url could be manually added to the initial index (bookmark)?
