Hi,

I understand that the search box is not appearing on the custom web page.

Thank you for bring this issue to our attention, your time and efforts on this matter are highly appreciate.

We had reported the issue to product team,  per the confirmation from the product team, the situation we are describing is unfortunately By Design due to some complications with regards to web part pages and the web parts themselves.  We also checked the source code and we saw that there is some logic in web part pages to remove the view selector and search box because the web part and its content are not perceived as being a part of the page itself.

Thank you for your support and understanding.
