We’ve deleted somehow the entire “Filter products” search field on the Products page in Admin.
Is there a way to get it back?
Here’s a before versus after image.
Cheers.
Topic summary
A Shopify admin accidentally believed they deleted the “Filter products” search field from the Products page in the admin panel.
Resolution:
- The field was not deleted—Shopify redesigned the interface
- The search/filter functionality now requires clicking a magnifying glass icon located on the far right side of the page (not at the top as before)
- After clicking the magnifying glass, users click the “+” button to access additional filter options
User Reaction:
- The change adds extra clicks compared to the previous design
- Some users view this as an unnecessary modification that reduces efficiency rather than improving the workflow
Hi @Muddy
actually its not possible to delete admin fields
here it is
Jivan, thanks for replying.
What we want back is the entire search field, as indicated in this image. We deleted it accidentally and can’t find how to restore it.
Cheers.
You didn’t delete it. Shopify in their “infinite wisdom” and constant need to “fix” what isn’t broken changed it and as always, made it worse. They can’t leave anything alone. Now it takes more clicks to use the feature. Way to go guys!
Anyhow now you have to click the Magnify Glass, after that click the “+” that pops up under the search bar that pops up, there you can select more filters. Not a change I think needed to be made because it saves us no time.
OK, It looks like we need to click the magnifying glass on the very right, not at the top. Thank you!
