Symphony.

We're discussing whether Symphony CMS is the right CMS for a new project. It will have a lot of entries, so we're looking for a way to keep it manageable in the back end. However, we can't find any search or filter extensions that enable searching or filtering in the back end. Are we missing something? How do you guys cope with large amounts (> 1000) of entries?

Hi there. Try the Publish Filtering extension. Screenshot here.

Great! Exactly what I was looking for. The name of the extension made me think it was something like "published"/"unpulished" state for entries, but it's not. Thanks again!

Is it also possible to search in all fields? With the filter plugin you need to select a field first.

Nope, individual fields only. But you could concatenate multiple fields into one using the Reflection field and search on that, perhaps.
