Are you able to search for parents like you can staff & students?
Adam, no, not currently. This is a good idea, and I have added it to the v14 todo list. v12 added the ability to see, in User Admin, the family a user is associated with, which helped us tie students to parents. Does that help you in the meantime?
It does help, but a qucik search may be useful for admin.
Sounds good, will aim to deliver in v14.
