Quickly find pages and features
The search box in the middle of the top bar takes you straight to the page you need, without opening each item in the sidebar. Type a few words like "shipping" or "inventory" and press Enter.
It also searches your store's orders, customers and products, so you can open an order with just its order number or the customer's name.
Open the search box
- Open one of your stores.
- Click Quick navigate in the middle of the top bar. Or press Ctrl K on Windows, ⌘ K on a Mac.
Press Ctrl K or ⌘ K again, or press Esc, to close the search box.
Go to a page
- Type the name of a page or what you want to do, for example “shipping”, “create product” or “inventory”.
- Use the up and down arrow keys to choose a result.
- Press Enter to open the page. You can also click a result directly.
Results are grouped under headings like Navigation, Products and Settings. Every settings page is in the Settings group, so typing “domain” takes you straight to the domain settings page.
Find an order, customer or product
- Open the search box.
- Type at least 2 characters, for example an order number, a customer’s name or a product name.
- Wait for the Searching… line to disappear.
- Scroll down past the pages to see the Customers, Orders and Products groups.
- Click a result to open that order, customer profile or product.
Each group shows at most 5 results. If you don’t see what you need, type something more specific, or open the list page and filter it.
Use Quick navigation
When the search box is empty, you see Quick navigation with commonly used pages such as Orders, Products, Customers, Notifications and Plans & points.
- Open the search box.
- Click a label under Quick navigation.
On a phone, the search box stays in the top bar. Tap it to open it, and the search box takes the full width of the screen.
Frequently asked questions
What does the search box find in orders?
Order numbers, customer names, customer emails and product names in the order. Customers are found by name, email and phone number. Products are found by name and description.
Why do I get a no-permission message when I open a page from the search box?
The search box lists every page in the dashboard, including pages your role isn't allowed to view. Ask the store owner to change your role if you need that page.
I don't see the search box on the store list page?
The search box is only there when you're inside a store. Open a store first, then search.
