I'm upgrading a site from 4.7 to 6.latest, I'm on the verge of uploading the new version but I just noticed: The search tab has disappeared from the users page! I just have "List" and "Add User" along the top where as before I also had "Search". I have a heavily customized theme but it can't be that as I just use vanilla Garland for the admin theme.
The search module is enabled and the admin users have all permissions for it.
Is there a setting I can set somewhere to get this back? I know for a fact the site administrator will hit the wall if they can't look up users by name at will and I've already told them I'll be launching the new site tomorrow! :(
Any suggestions welcome although I'm extremely hesitant to get into sourcing and deploying new 3rd party modules this late in the game, surely this functionality is still available in core somewhere?
Cheers,
Roger.

Sounds like it could be theme-related. Meantime there is a block you need to enable in the blocks section of admin, you could set its visibility for admin only.
There is also this if nothing else works:
http://drupal.org/project/site_user_list
Rly?
Thanks but I've enabled the search block (even though my theme already has its own built in) and it doesn't give me the users search tab back. The regular search is incomplete and noisy, the search tab on the users page in 4.7 restricted the search to just usernames, that is what I'm looking for.
Cheers,
Roger.

I know, but unfortunately it seems that that particular tab no longer exists -- I suspect it was possibly part of a module (called search_users, if I'm not mistaken) that was likely used in the original site install. Thus, you may be forced to use the user_list module, unless you can come up quickly with a way of customizing your theme. At least that appears to be the situation, without actually seeing or getting access to your site. Worst case, you can create a link in the admin menu for the user_list function.

is it this one: example.com/search/user/

Better still.

You can also simulate that functionality by creating a view and using an exposed filter for 'user: name'.
