Search Field

The number of results for the performed search is displayed at the beginning of the row . The maximum number of results is 1500 (and when there are more links in the database that correspond to the search).

Filters button to open and close all the filter options listed above.

"about" button gives the option to turn on or off the columns in the table of results (links). Custom fields will also appear here, if they have been added.

The Search field filters results according to link titles (title), tags (tags) and the url itself (url). One, two or all three options can be selected and this determines which columns of data will be searched for the entered term. If there are Short text custom fields on the account, they will also appear here and search and filtering of this Short text field will be enabled via Search.

If only the "url" filter is on, then the search is performed according to the prefix principle, ie only results where the link starts with the entered prefix are displayed. In all cases, http://, https:// and www do not affect the search.

Next dropdown Show which determines the number of results per page.

And finally, the number of pages of results and the possibility of Jump with which one can go directly to a specific page.

Table with results

Row colors

  • If the row in the table has a light red background, it means that that link is in some process (either a health check is being done or an edit of the link's data has been submitted) and it cannot be edited, nor can a health check be started for it. If you try to edit a link colored like this, you will see the following message:

  • Blue links indicate the first link for that client on that domain

Columns

After this, it is not possible to edit/delete the link by the user.

  • edit - by clicking on edit, you go to the edit link page, where you can edit data related to the link in accordance with the user role

  • by clicking on the "three dots" we get new options:

  • delete - delete the selected link for a specific client

  • flag - Clicking on the flag indicates a link that did not pass the health check, but should have. It is mandatory to mark (flag) the link in this case, so that one of the admins could manually edit and change it.

  • pause - only admins have this option. By clicking on pause, the admin marks the links that he will not submit for the client in this reporting period, that is, until he unpauses it.

  • Price column - shows how much a link on a specific domain is paid, in the appropriate currency

Selection of links

After selecting one or more links on the Search page, the following options open:

  • Download CSV to download selected links in CSV format

  • Health Recheck checks the status of the selected links again (uses checks from the Subscription package)

  • Add to OPPS works only when the "unclaimed for client" filter is active and 1 - 100 links are selected (for admins, this number limit does not apply). Unique domains of the selected links are added to the user's oppove for the client selected in unclaimed for.

  • Report selected is used to mark the links that enter the report for the client. If Base is connected to Reportz, all reported characters appear in the corresponding report (dashboard). If Reportz is not connected, the reported links can be filtered through the Search page.

  • Delete selected to delete selected links

  • Select Others selects all results. If there are more than 100 results, they will not be selected (this limitation does not apply to admins).
