What are the syntax for all macros to use the advance search macroName:

Question

Dear Community,

Sometimes I need to run an advanced search to see which pages are using a particular macro. I know this can be done with macroName: but the hard part is to get the right syntax of the add ons. For example I am trying to search for all pages that use the confiforms. I have tried with confiforms, Confiforms and confiForms. This is an exact example but it would be ideal to have like a list with the names. I could not find one.

You can see the macro name in either source or storage formats of a page.

There's not exactly a "comprehensive" list or a macro suggestion service afaik but you could try the "Macro Usage" page at /admin/pluginusage.action

That lists all(I think?) macro names - for the most part it should be similar to the "pretty" names so shouldn't be too hard to guess which one is which. Might be a pretty handy page in this case.

You should know and use the macro name (as in storage format) as an argument

For ConfiForms forms it would be

macroName:confiform
