Navigate and run actions from the keyboard
Shortcuts / commands: The Command Bar lists not only content (posts, users, etc.) but also actions: e.g. "Open Dashboard," "Open Users," "Open Settings," "New post," or other FleekDash commands. These appear in a Shortcuts or Commands group. Select one and press Enter (or click) to run it. E.g. navigate to that screen or trigger the action.
System shortcuts: Shortcuts are provided by the app (e.g. from menu structure and registered actions). You don't create them in the bar; you run them from the bar. So you can "open Users" or "go to Plugins" without opening the sidebar menu.
Footer: The footer of the Command Bar may show a link to Search settings (e.g. "Search settings" or "Customize search") so you can configure search and preview without leaving the flow.
Navigate and run actions from the keyboard. No clicking through menus.

In practice
Universal Search — shortcuts group, run actions, footer link to Search settings. On this page, Navigate and run actions from the keyboard is covered in detail: what it looks like in the admin, the exact controls it exposes, and how it behaves when you use it day to day. The sections above walk through Shortcuts in order, so you can skim headings and jump straight to the part you need. Because navigate and run actions from the keyboard is part of Command Bar & Fleek Search — a universal search that finds posts, screens, and actions from one keyboard shortcut — the settings you touch here interact with the rest of the feature; when in doubt, open the feature overview and follow the docs in order.
