Neither the search by filename, nor displaying the filenames (in Galleries) works in the new format. Same content as in the old SM but filenames displayed.

    Yes can someone please advise on this? I have 10000 images and need to be able to search by file name, but it's not working - or is it?

    Filenames are not indexed for search (and that was also the case on Legacy SmugMug). What you could do to at least have parts of your filenames added as keywords, is to turn on the account settings > discovery > search > filename keywording setting. Keywords would be searchable. Note that the setting only applies to new uploads and won't affect already uploaded photos.

    That said, I can see the filename display for each tile in this gallery:
    http://neapcocomponents.smugmug.com/Driveline-Components/
    by hovering over it. You can also click on a tile to see the filename in the bottom left of the lightbox.
    If you don't see the filename in a different gallery, check that it has filenames turned on in the gallery settings > appearance section.
