This is not an Issue but a Feature Request and since an extension provides this functionality and I see no reason to promote the functionality of this extension to "core" this should be closed imho

Here's a citate of my answer to gwdesk's reply:

"I understand that the core should be clean as possible. But I think the functionality of a smart search within content-titles like the RS-Finder would be a big improvement in the usability of the backend.

And please consider my second suggestion that isn't implemented in RS-Finder, yet: the use of a smart search in the backend to find config options. I love this feature in my WoltLab web applications because this makes the administration of our forum and calendar much faster and easier. Why not in Joomla?

In my opinion this could be a reason to choose Joomla as CMS for a website if this is available out of the box, not as a extension, which is more or less unknown."

Offtopic: If the Issue Tracker is the wrong place for feature requests so why the label [Feature Request] and this hint are existing?

The idea of a site wide search in the admin was part of the design proposal for J4 admin theme

Thanks Brian and acknowledged.......and?

You can’t randomly add features to a design proposal without a
functionality document. There exists no such document.

Backend search needs to be better thought out than how both frontend search
components were added. And needs to be part of a proper core search API
that any component be encouraged to use (so have a single hook driven core
API, not three separate systems).

Backend search is also more complex because depending on how far it goes it
has to read more than the database; filesystem results (such as config and
language overrides) would also need inclusion. Then you have a lot more of
the backend UI that is language string driven so if someone’s searching
menu item titles that are stored as language strings and expecting the
translated title…

No, it’s not a simple feature. No, I don’t think it is a must have for
core. And to be perfectly honest, no, I don’t think extension vendors
would buy in on supporting it (many don’t support core search components,
and many of their components are painful or impossible to hook as it is).

I made a statement of fact - not a statement of opinion

(btw joomla 3.9 introduced search inside the content to the article manager and not just titles)

Set to "closed" on behalf of @alikon by The JTracker Application at issues.joomla.org/joomla-cms/23146

closed as we already have a search inside the content to the article manager and also there are extensions for this task
