How to set default search as file search for Vim plugin CtrlP?

Question

I'm using CtrlP plugin for my vim for fuzzy file search. I generally work on a large Symfony project & searching is very inefficient & slow but I figured that if I press <c-d> after <c-p> it searches by file name than file path which is way faster & what I want.

I'm not able to figure out how to set it as a default search mode when i hit <c-p> & it's not in their do either.

Can someone help me in this ?

@romainl Thanks for pushing. I actually did read it but didn't used my head enough to figure out myself. Here's the solution: let g:ctrlp_cmd = 'CtrlP' — Rahul Gupta, Oct 01 '16 at 11:23
