Advanced Search
One of the more advanced features of LinkAce is the search. It provides a simple yet powerful interface to quickly find links you’re searching for. You can search either by a specific search string, or by a list or tag.
Note: Search is only available for logged-in users.
Search Options
The following table gives you an overview of all search options available:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Search for | The main input field, letting you specify the search term |
| Search Title | If checked, LinkAce searches for the term in the title field |
| Search Description | If checked, LinkAce searches for the term in the description field |
| Broken Links only | If checked, only display links marked as broken by the automated link checks |
| without Lists | If checked, only links without any associated lists will be displayed |
| without Tags | If checked, only links without any associated tags will be displayed |
| List filter | If you select a list here, only links associated with the selected list will be displayed |
| Tag filter | If you select a tag here, only links associated with the selected tag will be displayed |
| Visibility filter | Select if public, internal, or only private links should be displayed |
| Sorting option | Sort the results by title, URL, or creation date, ascending or descending |
How to Use Search
- Navigate to the Search page from the main menu
- Enter your search term in the “Search for” field
- Select which fields to search (title, description, or both)
- Optionally, apply filters for lists, tags, visibility, or broken links
- Choose your preferred sorting option
- Click “Search” to see results
The search is flexible — you can combine multiple filters to narrow down results. For example, you can search for links with a specific tag that don’t have any lists assigned, or find all broken links in a particular list.
