SharePoint PeoplePicker search not finding users

Question

I have a SharePoint site configured with FBA.

If I enter a user into a people picker field and check their name, it shows up fine:

However, if I click the "Browse" button (show above to the right of Check Names) and search for a user, nothing comes up.

I have the people picker wildcards on the web app set to

<PeoplePickerWildcards>
  <clear />
  <add key="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" value="%" />
  <add key="SQL-MembershipProvider" value="*" />
</PeoplePickerWildcards>

Which are the same as in Central Admin, where search seems to be working fine. Any idea what I'm missing?

Answer 1

It looks that some properties of people picker is not set for searching.

Please go below link, it seems you have to set the search criteria and domain.

Are you able to get validated all users or specific user in people picker?
