As of April 2026, Admin Menu Search (AMS) is a WordPress menu plugin with 0 active installations and a 0/5 rating0. It has been downloaded 586 times in total. Requires WordPress 6.4+ and PHP 7.0+. Available on WordPress.org since 2024. Last updated 1 year ago — may have compatibility concerns. Top alternative: Admin Menu Editor.
A plugin for quick and easy search of menu items and sub-items, taking into account different keyboard layouts. This means that even if you enter text in English, but you have another keyboard layout active, the desired menu item will still be found!
The search field is added to the very top of the admin bar, ensuring that it is always accessible. And when I say permanent, I really mean always! I’ve added a hotkey for quick focus on this field – slash (/). And to quickly clear the input field if it’s in focus, just press Esc and the field will clear, making all the menu items available again.
