I am working on a migrated site and today my prime concept is to enable search box on list, I tried to enable different ways as explained below but no luck.

  1. Edit the list web part -> miscellaneous sections -> but I didn't find "Display Search box" option.

  2. I followed fellow articles and changed view styles Shaded to Default.

Still I am unable to find the Display Search box option on web part miscellaneous section.

Can anyone know please let me help to enable search box on list?

  • Have you inserted the list to the page as an App Part? (Edit page -> Insert -> App Part -> Select your list)

  • Hi moe, I didn't try that option because of this site is migrated one and there is a no.of pages has lists added on the site, so going to insert web part with views on each page is difficult and time taken.

  • I see. If just possible, you could try this on a test site for example and report the results. I don't know that much about migrations, but I know they aren't always that straight-forward :)
