Search Bar not showing in custom collection

I’m displaying 3 custom collections based on a tab. I’m not sure what’s happening. I can’t make the search bar appear in 2 of the collections. I’ve uploaded the screenshot to show you what I mean. One is working correctly “Ausentes”, 2 of them not: “Presentes” and “Lesion”


Do you have any CSS for this app?

If the search bar is not showing in your custom collection, check if search functionality is enabled in your theme settings. Ensure that the collection template includes a search input field. Also, verify that JavaScript or third-party apps aren’t interfering. Clearing the cache or updating the theme may help.

I do have some inline CSS within the rich text. It’s strange because one is working perfectly while the other isn’t. But yes, I do have CSS there.

Is there potential for them to interfere with the search bar? I would try removing them to see if the search bar comes up.

Still not working. Deleted the rich text but nothing happened.

What I have noticed is that when I use as the source a relation column I get the search, but when I use a straight table I don’t get the search.

Am I missing something?

That’s weird. I’ll get the team to look at this.

The reason the search bar was not showing was that there were only computed columns present in the Custom Collection’s display. Once a basic column value was added and displayed in the Custom Collection, the search bar appeared right away.

Another issue came from this though — the search bar in Custom Collection does not seem to search any of the computed columns, only the basic ones. This appears to be a limitation of the Custom Collection, but I’ve asked the team to confirm this and will update this post once I hear back.

@jb7 try this use case. It allows you to search in Multiple tables and also computed columns:
