Story
Magnolia should let me navigate and browse my web site structure by using a mouse, a keyboard and using a touch device. It should be easy and quick to find a particular page without having to work myself down the site hierarchy.
...
Navigating a list showing pages of the site is handled in Navigating lists, while working with items in the tree list is described in Focusing, selecting and opening items.
Magnolia also offers to browse the pages of a site in a list. In this view, a number of sorting and filtering options are available:
- options to sort pages the list alphabetically, by last modification date and by size
- options to filter pages the list by tag, author and page status
- advanced options to filter pagesthe list, such as by site, translation status or locale (has to be further defined)
...
Inline editing of page attributes
...
The attribute you clicked or tapped on will then become editable. When using the keyboard only, the first attribute of all editable attributes in the currently selected row or of the currently selected item becomes editable. You may select to edit a different item by hitting TAB.
Showing errors or warnings
...
Note that inline editing will be restricted to work for simple attributes only. While e.g. changing a page template in the structure view was possible in previous versions of Magnolia, it won't be supported starting with version 5. Changing a page template can be a complex operation and may require you to enter values for required attributes, both of which is not viable using inline editing. Complex page attributes thus may only be changed by actually editing the page properties in a dialog or by opening the page for editing.

Quickly find a page
In the list view, a search box allows to search for pages. Search results are shown immediately in the list view and may be further filtered and sorted using the options available there. There's no search option in the structure/tree view - the user shall change to the list view to run a search.
