Search Web Parts not showing up in SharePoint Online page
I have a web part page in a SharePoint Online page library. When I edit the page & click add a web part, every category is showing up EXCEPT the one I need, which is the Search web parts. This includes the Refinement & Results web parts. Any ideas what I need to change to get these to show up? Thanks in advance!

- Not exactly an answer to your question, but I'd suggest looking at the new updates to the Modern Search which now includes custom verticals and filters/refiners using managed properties, etc. I'd definitely suggest trying to go with Modern search as much as possible as you'll ensure you get all the newest features and users get a common search experience across the environment. See Bill Bär's latest post with some details. https://wbaer.net/2022/03/search-notes-custom-verticals-and-refiners/
LauraM440 Unfortunately, search web parts are not available in Modern SharePoint pages. If you are comfortable using custom web parts check out PnP search web parts https://microsoft-search.github.io/pnp-modern-search/
Bharath Arja it is not a modern page, it is the old schools web part page. I can see every other category of web part & have successfully added the search web parts in other SPO environments, I just can't figure out what setting is interfering with showing the search web parts.
LauraM440 ah.. got it. Disabled custom scripts at root site collection can be a possible reason. Give it a read https://mstechtalk.com/missing-web-part-features-office-365/
