Searching in File Field type with Subfolder - No results

[kchatel]

Description of the problem
Using a File Fieldtype, there is no way to search for files within subfolders. I'm not sure if it's a bug or a feature that needs to be added. It becomes cumbersome to find files when they are located multiple levels deep in subdirectories.

Environment Details:

• Version: [7.2.8]
• PHP Version [8.0.27]

@kchatel are you speaking of using search in File Manager, Entry Manager or front-end entries search? can you provide an example?

[kchatel]

@intoeetive Using the Search in a File fieldtype in an entry in the CMS, I haven't tested it on the front-end.

@kchatel I'm still not sure which exactly search here you speak about :) Can you add a screenshot, the search keyword and the name of file that is not found
