PHPRunner 8.0 Search

What are the differences between the ones that work and don't work?

Ensure that the search fields is a lookup wizard and enable "edit box with ajax popup" ... Once you have it correct you can also use the nifty new copy feature to copy the settings to another search field.

See Preview 8.0 online demo - dated 19th June 2014 (where it works)

Rather than to try to remind anybody around to try to somehow observe the forum rules (say, it is NOT a support forum, support is available at a little annual surcharge) I think it to very very unfair to the developers team to make the forum community to believe (see online demo well over 2 months ago in proper function) that the real PROBLEM here is NOT sitting in front of the home screen.
Just my 2 Cents on the issue ...

It doesn't even work on the demo page. Try searching for something on any list page, search suggest does not work. It looks like the page reloads but it doesn't show anything. That's how it is in my project.

On successful search missions..., it depends so much of what fields had been activated to get INCLUDED into the search mission..., if you e.g. try for matchword "usa" or "brazil" to see that it works, or say, a field named like e.g. COUNTRY had been included. Please re-onfirm that you have observed ALL STEPS to be taken inside the PHPRunner Manual (Help) as listed under search word "Dashboard search". Further, to always talk on issues (if any) with the very LATEST v8.0 build to be in use..., please make sure that you had already been hopping over to build 22709 (as your headline still talks build 22701 rather than current 22709 build ...) where the emphasis here is NOT whether a bug had been fixed or not, but focus here is on the content of the as well updated MANUAL.
