FAQ
-
Does this work with custom post types?
-
Not yet — currently it searches standard posts and pages only. Support for custom post types may be added in the future.
-
Do I need the Classic Editor plugin installed?
-
No — if it’s installed, you’ll see a “Classic Editor” action in the row menu. If not, you’ll just see the standard edit and Gutenberg options.
-
Why does it look exactly like WordPress tables?
-
We use WordPress’s native table styling and row actions to provide a familiar, consistent experience that matches the rest of your admin interface.
