Modern Document library: Search box gone?
- DeletedMay 16, 2019
I opened a support case with Microsoft and the support agent was bewildered as well. We gathered Screenshots and Fiddler logs. To my surprise today everything has reverted back to normal but only for classic team sites. On modern team sites I can still see the new searchbox but in modern document libraries the old searchbox at the top left has returned. At least it's working.
And we determined that this is a preview feature at the moment and only users that, in the M365 admin center under organizational profile, ar enabled for "Targeted release for selected users" will see that feature. I was relieved to learn that as only a few select of our users have gotten confused by that hiccup.
So for the most part, all good now. Thanks for chiming in.
Hi Deleted,
We have the same thing in our tenant. It's a bother for our List users who are used to the List specific search box.
The search box from the main site will return the results but also returns related non-List content. Pinning List columns to the Filter pain is the only work around we could offer.
I don't mind the change but our end-users are not big fans of it.
