There are several pages that have the potential to have long lists, such as User Management. A Search option is available on these pages. Searchable criteria varies depending on the page information. For example, you can perform a search in the User Management page to find a user by first, last, and/or username fields, as well as email address. You can use the Search option to search for a specific item by entering an exact name, or you can enter a part of a name or even a single letter to filter the list.

 

After you perform a search, the results list may still be too long to fit in a single page. There are several ways to change the display of the results. On the right, above the results list, a field displays the number of the current page and total number of pages. You can use the arrow next to this field to go to a specific page in the list. In addition there are arrows < and >, which scroll back and forward a page at a time. The default number of results on a page is 25. You can use the Records Per Page list to change this to 50 or 100, or Show All the results.
