Keyboard Shortcuts & Command Palette
Using the command palette (Cmd+K) for fast navigation and search.
The command palette is the fastest way around CeremonySync. Press a shortcut, type a few letters, and go straight to a page or a record instead of hunting through menus.
Opening it
- Press Cmd+K on a Mac, or Ctrl+K on Windows and Linux
- Or click the search icon in the header
It opens over whatever you were doing, with the cursor already in the box. Esc closes it without going anywhere.
What it searches
Start typing and results appear as you go. Navigation is grouped the way the app thinks about itself:
| Group | What's in it |
|---|---|
| Main | Dashboard, Calendar, Weddings and the daily screens |
| Sales | Pipeline, proposals, contracts |
| Financial | Invoices and payments |
| Management | Vendors, users and the rest of the business screens |
| Insights | Reports and analytics |
| Configuration | Settings and the administration screens |
Alongside those, it searches your actual records — Weddings, Leads, Proposals, Contracts, Invoices and Vendors — so a couple's surname finds their wedding, their proposal and their invoice at once.
Two more that are easy to miss:
- Help Articles — it searches this help center. Type what you are stuck on and the article comes back in the results, no different from a wedding.
- Add a module — the paid modules, if you do not have them yet.
Click a result or press Enter to go there.
Browsing instead of searching
If you would rather look through a list than name a thing, click a group heading — Weddings or Leads, for example — and the palette switches to just that, with its own search box ("Search weddings..."). It is a quicker way to find a record whose name you half remember.
Worth knowing
- It only offers what you have permission to open, so your list is not your colleague's
- Results are live — a lead created a minute ago is already there
- It works on every screen, including inside a wedding
- When nothing matches you get No results found rather than an empty list
On a phone there is no keyboard shortcut, but the search icon in the header opens the same thing.
Other keyboard basics
The app is mostly mouse-driven, but these behave as you would expect:
- Tab and Shift+Tab move between form fields
- Esc closes any sheet, dialog or overlay
- Enter submits a form or confirms the focused button
