hi,

i actived the quicksearch column for many field in a table.
i noticed i had to display the field in the listview page to make it searchable !

is this normal or a bug ?

am i obliged to show the column field to make the basic search available for this field ?

can’t i have 20 fieds in quicksearch with only 3 in column view displayed ? the search based on the 17 hidden column is not working…

i read the doc and it said nothing about that.
Even phpmaker did not show an alert box message when i’m checking the quicksearch box to alert me i forget the other column box is unchecked !
so, bug or not bug ?
Quicksearch on a field NEED to display the field ?

Best regards

PHPMaker can do that so easily for you.

  1. Make sure you have already enabled “List” option for all of those fields from “Fields” setup → “List Page”,

  2. Make sure you have already put the following code in “Page_DataRendering” server event under the “List Page”, for example:

$this->YourFieldName->Visible = FALSE; // adjust YourFieldName to your actual field name
// … and so forth for your desired fields that you want to hide it in List Page

  1. Re-generate ALL the script files as usual, and try again.
