Search

Each part of SessionPaw has its own search box. Here is where to look for what.

You're looking for	Search here
A tab that is open right now	Side View search
A tab you saved in a session	Session Manager search
A bookmark	Bookmarks Manager → Search view
A tab on another device	Other Devices search
A page on the site you're on	Popup → Site search tab, or the page right-click menu

Open tabs (Side View)

1. Click the green magnifier at the top of Side View.
2. Type a word. It is matched against tab titles and addresses, ignoring case.
3. Matching tabs are highlighted in place. Other tabs stay visible, so you still see where each match lives.
4. Press Esc or click × to close the search.

Tip: fold windows you don't care about first (right-click any fold arrow to fold all), then unfold just the ones with highlights.

Saved sessions (Session Manager)

1. Type in Search sessions in the toolbar.
2. Press Enter. Only sessions that contain a matching tab title or address stay in the lists.
3. Press Esc to clear.

Combine it with the tag filter next to it to narrow things down further.

Bookmarks (Bookmarks Manager)

Switch a panel to the Search view (magnifier icon) and type. Results come from all your bookmarks. You can select and drag results like any other bookmark.

Other devices

In the Other Devices view, type in the box on the left. Enter searches, Esc clears.

Search inside a site

To search only the site you're on:

• Open the Popup → Site search tab, or
• Right-click the page → SessionPaw → Search in site (Google).

If you selected text first, that text is used as the search words. Google Advance opens the advanced search form instead.
