Vanliga frågor

Will the launcher only list items the user has access to?

Yes, the plugin just searches admin items he can see on the menu when he\’s logged in.

How to add custom items to the search results that are not present on the WP admin menu?

Use the filter hook quickal_extra_items to add new items:
`
add_filter( \’quickal_extra_items\’, \’add_custom_items_to_quickal\’, 10, 1 );
function add_custom_items_to_quickal( $items ) {
$items[] = array(
\’label\’ => \’Custom Item\’, // Item label
\’link\’ => \’https://custom-link.com\’, // Link when clicked
\’icon\’ => \’dashicons-admin-site\’, // Dashicon or Base64 icon
\’term\’ => \’custom item\’. // Terms that this item will react to, generally the label lowercase
);

return $items;

}

Searches through post types, users, and administrative links, allowing you to jump directly to them. It would be nice to have an option to open items in a new tab and to have support for the most commonly used plugins, such as WooCommerce and ACF.
