Default Is there any way to search for a specific VM?

I can't seem to find a way but I'm looking for a specific VM (probably embedded in the middle somewhere of my own pages).

CTRL+F

Then type some words in the search box to help locate the VM.

Well, that's a way to do it, but it only searches as far as the displayed VMs on that one page. I think Feign means searching for a specific VM through pages of them, which can't be done from the looks of it. D:

t'is what I thought. I'm looking for a specific link, so at least that will be eye catching.

that'd be a nice feature.
sort of like searching the posts/threads of a user... but having a custom search for vm's.
that's what you mean, yeah?

Yeah, very much so. Especially for those who have now hundreds of pages.

That would be SOOO handy. I've had that problem before and (as you know) it's unbelievably annoying.

If there's not one, is it possible to install/add one?

I'm all for the idea too. You can even search through the blogs and your PMs, but not VMs. D:

I think this would be a very useful idea. I usually don't search my VM's for something, but there is this one thing I need to look up in there. And it's probably a couple hundred pages back. D:

The only problem I see with this is if VM's aren't stored in a database (care to clarify, somebody?), then it might not be able to search through them.
