<p>Advanced Post Search is a WordPress plugin for anyone who needs an advanced search for posts (or custom posts) in WordPress admin.<br />
Easily find posts by performing complex queries directly from the posts list and using specific filters for each field. It works with any post type and custom post type.</p>
<p>Advanced Post Search lets you search posts by any post attribute; search by:</p>
<ul>
<li>Post Title</li>
<li>Post Content</li>
<li>Post Publish (date or date interval)</li>
<li>Post Last Modified (date or date interval)</li>
<li>Post Status</li>
<li>Post Password</li>
<li>Post Author</li>
<li>Post Excerpt</li>
<li>Post Slug</li>
</ul>
<p>Specify which comparison operator you want to use; each field has its own comparison operators, according to the field type: for example, in <code>text</code> fields you can perform a <code>strict</code> or a <code>like</code> search.</p>
<p>You can manage search preferences from <code>Advanced Post Search » Views</code> in order to show/hide any search field for each post type.</p>
