Filter group folder in admin page doesn't work

[billux]

Environment:

• Nextcloud 18.0.10
• official Nextcloud FPM docker image, running on Debian buster

On our 2 Nextcloud instances where the groupfolders app is installed, we noticed that the filter/search function (#125) at the top-right of the admin page (/settings/admin/groupfolders) doesn't filter anything.

In the web console, I can see the XHR request /core/search?query=foo&inApps%5B%5D=settings&page=1&size=30, it always returns an HTTP 200 response with empty JSON array, whatever string I put in the query parameter. And the view keeps displaying all our groupfolders.

It looks like #1395 could maybe fix this!?

@fschrempf , I was not trying to fix the search in the admin page of the groupfolders plugin (/settings/admin/groupfolders) where this issue occurs.

My fix concerns the group and user search in the folder's detail view: in the 'sharing' tab, administrator can specify advanced permissons (ACLs) for groups and users. That search is broken as well.

@jngrb Ok, got it. Thanks for pointing that out. So we need a separate fix for this issue.

This problem has become more annoying with the new pagination. Previously, it was possible to use the browser's search function, which of course no longer works with the pagination.

Observed on our main instance (200+ group folders), that you need to move through the pagination multiple times before the individual pages start to show valid content. Ctrl+F5 attempted before. If it was my product, I'd consider a review of the component's software design.
