Searching for Players
QL's Content Manager features a powerful search engine and users can search for players based on multiple criteria.
A complete or partial player name.
A meta tag assigned to a player.
A player's status.
Etc.
You can perform a player search in different ways. For example, you can enter the search criteria in the search field directly, or you can create a query for recurring searches. Once your query has been created, it is saved so you can re-use it as many times as you wish.
Search results from typed-in search filter
In this example, we typed the word "brightsign" in the search criteria field. All the players with the word "brightsign" appear below.
Note the results are selected automatically for players.

Using Queries for your searches
Queries can be created, edited and deleted as needed.
Creating a New Query
Click the options button (3-dots) located at the top of the PLAYERS window.
To add a new query to the list, click Create query. A new window will appear.
Enter a descriptive name for the new query. In this example, we are building a query that filters the results so only BrightSign players will appear in the Monitoring report.

You can delete any filter by clicking the corresponding "X" in the right column.
When you are done, click OK to save your new query.
The new query will now appear when you click on the pull-down field.
Result… You only see players with the word "BrightSign" in their names. Other selected players have been removed from the results.
You could create variations of this, such as only show the BrightSign players that are online, or that are currently assigned a Professional player license. The possibilities are endless.
To disable the query and return to the default view, select “None” from the pull-down menu.
The more players you have deployed, the more useful search queries will be.
