Imagine that user has more than 500 images and the user would like to search it by name, if we get search bar it would be easy to find the image and select it for the article instead of just looking into thumbnails.
It should also be possible to search using substring.
We should be able to search for images in media manager.
We can't search based on image name in media manager in the current version.
We apologise if this feature is already proposed by someone and we had the conversation on it. We have tried to find this kind of feature requests but we haven't found it so we thought it would be great to suggest the idea.
(We have discussed this feature during our JUG Sorø bug squashing event and didn't found any proposal so far.)

For a temporary solution, you can use the browser's built-in find to search in the current directory.
We have already an open issue for that in the MM repo joomla-projects/media-manager-improvement#175. Recursive search would be hard, especially with cloud adapters. But searching in the current folder can be done in the client.
I was thinking just searching this folder for now?

In NMM also recursive search was implemented in backend for local adapter i guess,
For clouds they offer search endpoints so we can use them with nmm most of the time, depends highly on adapter implementation
But searching in the current folder can be done in the client.
I think it would be great to start adding search inside the currently selected directory in the initial version. We can always improve it. It's better than nothing. Most of the time user want to search in the current level. Results can be both folders and files.
I would probably search current folder and then when we want to add a tick box to search sub folders too?

@kasvith you are right. Forgot that.
Despite that I would also start with the current folder. It will be more reactive as everything can be done on the client site.

@laoneo for current folder it can be done in client, but as we planned to move for Streams i think we need to do a query from backend as we do not load whole folder (imagine a folder with 1000 files) at once.
But for now we can search in client side.
API Endpoints are available for recursive search
So its a matter of implementing frontend side

Ok given on the feedback by @laoneo and @kasvith I'm going to close this one here as the development of the 4.0 MM is done in the issue pointed above (joomla-projects/media-manager-improvement#175) Thanks for the suggestion
but as we planned to move for Streams
Is this decided?
This feature is merged into joomla-projects/media-manager-improvement#529
Great job. Thanks a lot, guys.
yes... It would be a nice thing.
