Hold down shift, and hit M, when you have the commander you want to do the site searching selected (or have your mouse hovering over their icon).

You can also do this with large groups by selecting them first, and hitting the hotkey.

It casts the spell every month, so if you want to summons lots of troops, you can use it for that as well.

I'm a Mac user, and I've never gotten this to work. Is it just me?

I'm a PC user, and it seemed iffy.

I'm looking into the situation where it won't autocast a site searching spell. Psientist, have you searched most of your sites before casting the site spell? I'm not sure what's going on, but I have a few ideas to hunt down.

Oh, and for me, I have to be in full window mode to do this.

On a Mac, and never had any trouble. One note, which might be relevant: If you don't have the appropriate gems at the very beginning of the new turn (before gem income is added to your stockpile), the monthly ritual order gets wiped out.

I like using it with auto-generate items such as ones that summon. Its a big help not to have to tell that mage every turn to do a summons with his item
