If this is a single-value select box, without Powerful Filters (our paid add-on) enabled, you can go to column settings/data and change "Number of possible values to load" from "All" to a defined number. After that, the search field will appear in the drop-down.
Please provide me a temporary WP-admin login for your site where this happens, so we could log in and take a look ‘from the inside’ as that’s the most efficient way to see and resolve the issue.
We do not interfere with any data or anything else except for the plugin (in case that’s a production version of the site), and of course we do not provide login data to third party.
Also make sure to tell me what's the table ID, and which column is affected.
You can write credentials here just check Private Reply, so nobody can see them except us.
Thanks for the credentials. When i log in, I see the table like this in back-end:
So, I cannot even select the filters. Is this how you see it also?
Issues like this usually occur when there is a conflict either with the theme currently active on your website, or another plugin you have installed.
Can you please change the theme and see if the issue is resolved? If not, then please deactivate all other plugins except for our plugin, refresh the page where the issue is, and see if it is resolved (it should be). If it is, then start activating other plugins one by one, and after each activation refresh the page to see if the issue reoccurred. Once it does reoccur, you will have found the plugin causing the issue.
However, I won't be able to help you with this, since this column is pulling its data using a Foreign Key. When it's configured in this manner, there's no way to add the search field, because all data from the remote table/column will be read, and the plugin cannot (yet) search for foreign-key values in the filter.
Thanks for your reply, So if i input the country data manully without using Foreign Key, It will display a search block?
I have tried this solution , but I find that when I choose "Number of possible values to load" to All, the search box will be gone. Since Country has over 200 values ,I would like show all of it.
However I'm barely satisfied with this solution, I think the best way for me is to manully input data and use mysql to connect these two table .
I agree with you, Howard, and I've forwarded your suggestion to our development team for review.
I'll kindly ask you to add it as a feature suggestion on this page. Features are pushed up on our "to-do" list when there are a lot of customers requesting those features, so having your vote as a customer can be beneficial to this feature being developed sooner.
Hello howard.
Thank you for your purchase.
If this is a single-value select box, without Powerful Filters (our paid add-on) enabled, you can go to column settings/data and change "Number of possible values to load" from "All" to a defined number. After that, the search field will appear in the drop-down.

Thanks, howard, that works.

Hi again Howard.
If you input the country data manually, and choose anything but the "ALL" option in column settings/data the search will be shown.
At the moment, there's no way to include the search when All values are loaded in the filter.

I understand what you mean but if there has a option to control that search block display or not would be better.
Anyway thanks for your kindness, and hope this plugin will be added this function and better.
