Adding a search box feature for your data listing created in ChronoForms8 is very easy using the List Search behavior available in form fields, we explain how to use this powerful feature to make it easier for your users to find the records they need.
We need a Search field and a Search button so we drag a Text field and a Button from the right Views panel
Our listing Read Data action can be as simple as the following one, we read all rows from the core ChronoForms8 database table, make sure the Limit and Paging behaviors are both enabled
The ChronoForms8 table has a column named "title" which we want to search using the Search field we added earlier, this is how to setup the List Search behavior in the Title text field to run the search on the Read Data automatically
As shown, the Read Data Name should match the name of the Read Data action (read_forms) and the Search Columns should have the table columns we are going to search.
Finally our table view will not be affected by any changes we need for the Search
You can red more on how to setup the whole list in this tutorial
This should be the final order of items on the page, please note that the Search Text field should be above the Read Data:
