Overview
Running a search is a great way to narrow down the contact records you’re working with – instead of wading through every record in the project, with search results you’ll see just the contacts you’re interested in. However, even after running a search, you may still have a large number of contacts included in the results. This article will help you learn to navigate those records.The search results page
We’ll begin by getting to know the search page. There’s a lot of information displayed here. There are also helpful tools for navigating – you just need to know where to look. Below we look at four areas of the search results page.1. Contacts
2. Contact count summary
3. Contact records shown per page
4. Page navigation
5. Infinite scroll toggle
The Infinite scroll () toggle switch is in the search controls bar at the top right of the results. When on (the default), Broadstripes automatically loads more records as you reach the bottom of the visible results. Toggle it off to keep results on individual pages and navigate with the page controls instead. Your preference is saved automatically and applies to all future searches.
Scrolling through results
You can scroll down through your search results in a few ways:
- use your keyboard’s down arrow or page down key.
- use your mouse to scroll down, just as you would with any other web page. As you scroll down, Broadstripes dynamically loads additional records as you reach the end of your search results. The contact count under the Search Results heading updates as more records load (for instance “Showing 1-20 of 106” will change to “Showing 1-40 of 106”) so you can always know the total number of contacts being displayed. To turn off infinite scrolling and navigate page by page instead, use the Infinite scroll toggle in the search controls bar. You can keep the header information visible even as you scroll down the search results by clicking the “magic header” button. This will “lock” the labels in place at the top of the page.
Paging through results
If you want to move more quickly through your search results, you can view them a page at a time. First, set the number of results you want to see per page using the 20 / page drop-down menu in the search controls bar at the top of the page. Next, use the page navigation tool in the search controls bar to move from page to page.
