Chrome has a setting that lets you use a shortcode in the address bar to search a site. If you go into Settings > Search > Manage search engines and scroll down to “Other search engines” you will likely see a list of sites setup with shortcodes.
I use the shortcode wpcodex to search the WordPress Codex. Enter in the following to the bottom of the list of Other search engines:
- Add a new search engine: WP Codex
- Keyword: wpcodex
- URL with %s in place of query: http://codex.wordpress.org/index.php?title=Special:Search&search=%s
Once this is done you should be able to type wpcodex into the address bar and get this:
When you hit enter for that query it will take you straight to the codex page for WP_Query.
A very helpful shortcut for WordPress theme and plugin developers!
