Read only fields in edit disables ajax in advanced searrc

Hello,
Situation:

I mark a field readonly. ( Field properties in the visual editor for a edit page )
Result:

Doing this disables Ajax auto suggest in advanced search.

Searching with ajax in the list page works normal.
Remarks:

I found that marking a field readonly in the visual editor edit page also changes the properties

of that field in the visual editor search page.
Any tips?
greetings,
Johan

Johan,
you can edit your SQL query on the Edit SQL query tab in the following way:

select field1,

field1 as field1_search,

...

from TableName



And then set up different settings for field1 and field1_search fields on the Visual Editor tab.

Jane,
I found another solution but would like to be sure it is safe.

Instead of using a read only field I just put {$value_fiche_item01_naam} directly in the source code view of the visual editor.

I can not see the value in the visual editor but the page is generated fine.
Is this safe?
greetings,
Johan

Johan ,
Yes. You can use {$value_fiche_item01_naam} as field value on the add/edit pages.
