Web Search Deactivate Autosearch

Beta License: AGPL-3 OCA/web Translate me on Weblate Try me on Runboat

By default, Odoo triggers a new search every time you add or remove a filter, a group by, or a favorite in the search bar. When you need to combine several filters before looking at the result, this means the search is run once per filter, which can be slow and noisy.

This module adds an “Auto search” checkbox next to the search bar. When unchecked, adding or removing filters no longer triggers an automatic search: you can freely combine several filters and only trigger the search once, by clicking the search icon.

Usage

  1. Go to any view with a search bar (e.g. a list or kanban view).
  2. Uncheck the “Auto search” checkbox displayed next to the search bar.
  3. Add or remove as many filters, group by, or favorites as you need: the view is not refreshed automatically anymore.
  4. Click the search icon to run the search with all the selected filters at once.
  5. Check “Auto search” again to go back to the default behavior.
