    Do you mean you want the panes looking exactly the same, but you want a title above each one?

    Hello Colin, yes

    There is no option for that in SearchPanes at this time I'm afraid. The title is actually a placeholder attribute for the input element.

    As Allan said, there's no specific option, but you could do something like this example here. It iterates through the panes and just creates a h2 element above each:

        initComplete: function() {
          $('.dtsp-searchPane').each(function() {
            let title = $(this).find('input').attr('placeholder')
            let header = $(this).find('.dtsp-topRow')
            
            if (title !== undefined) {
              let heading = '<h2>' + title + '<colin/h2>'
              $(heading).insertBefore(header)
            }
          })
        }

    @Colin, you are a genius! thank you! It works excellent with the basic initialization, but it doesn't work with Vertical Panes
    I added some code to your example, Could you please check why it does not work when Panes are vertically stacked?

    Ah, that's just because you're not initialising SearchPanes with the table, you're doing it afterwards - so you just need to make sure the code that generates the headers runs after SearchPanes is initialised, something like this,
