Common Search Bar Shortcuts
If you're in a hurry to find searchable information a little faster, you can use certain shortcuts to filter your search.
To begin a regular search, you can type:
Command + K (iOS)
Control + K (Windows)
If you are looking for a current or future child, you can begin your search with:
"c:" followed by typing the child's name
This will trigger the search function to search within the list of children only - it won't offer any functions or features as search results
Similarly, you can search through all current, future and withdrawn children by typing:
"ac:" followed by the child's name
If you are searching for a newsfeed post, you can begin your search with:
"p:" followed by key terms in the post
If you are searching for a particular bill payer, you can begin your search with:
"bp:" followed by the name of the bill payer
