In your pagelist controller you need to write something like below:
$attrName    = $_REQUEST['attrName'];
$submit_form    = $_REQUEST['submit_form'];
if($submit_form == "Search"){
   if($attrName != ""){
      $pageList->filter('attrName', '%'.$attrName.'%', $comparison = 'LIKE');
   }
}


If you need any professional help, then I'll be able to make one for you with a very reasonable price.

Sorry for my stupid question but in my controller.php in page_list folder is only
" defined('C5_EXECUTE') or die("Access Denied.");
class PageListBlockController extends Concrete5_Controller_Block_PageList {

}
"

Where can i find it?

Hi again,
i have another question, because the option in standard page list " the newewst on the top " doesn't work and when I create new page it doesn't show the newest article but random.
Maybe is a fix on this problem?
Thanks for reply...

Add this:
$pagelist->sortByPublicDateDescending();

In controller I write like that and it works:

<code>
$cArray = array();

switch($row['orderBy']) {
case 'display_asc':
$pl->sortByDisplayOrder();
break;
case 'display_desc':
$pl->sortByDisplayOrderDescending();
break;
case 'chrono_asc':
//$pl->sortByPublicDate();
$pl->sortByPublicDateDescending();
break;
case 'alpha_asc':
$pl->sortByName();
break;
case 'alpha_desc':
$pl->sortByNameDescending();
break;
default:
$pl->sortByPublicDateDescending();
break;
}
</code>

There are several page list addons in the marketplace that provide the functionality you describe.
