| Summary | 1581: Searching does not match Type field | ||||
| Description | When searching for a string, most fields are matched, but notably not the "Tyipe" field. When I search for the exact name off an object_type I expect that the search matches all objects of that type | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Load a few UPS type objects, making sure that the word "UPS" is not repeated on any other field or the name. Search for "UPS" and your objects will not show up. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
| related to | 1719 | new | Objects Page Type Filter |
| This is not a bug: RackTables provides different, more developed means to retrieve this specific information. If you open a page of an UPS object, you can see the object type is a hyperlink, which leads you to a filtered object list. This filter can be further refined and used in the Permissions text if needed. Let me know if you have any other questions. | |
|
I am doing exactly what you suggest already, it just feels clunky and counterintuitive. I have about 3000 objects in the DB, to get a list of UPS I need to remember the name of one to get to the object_type link. If I don't remember the name of any objects of a type, I need to scroll through 3000 items!!! The only other option is going to the dictionary interface and read the objet_type_id and filter the objects page; this is something that only admins can do (and it is a damn slow way of doing something simple like searching) |
|
|
You can add the following to the Permissions text to have a permanent shortcut for all UPS objects on the objects filter: define [UPS] {$objtype_12} |
|
|
Is this configuration per-user or global? We have 61 records in our Object_type dictionary and more than 10 users. I can consider adding 61 lines to the permissions config, but not 600 + |
|
| This feature works for all users (see also related options FILTER_SUGGEST_PREDICATES and FILTER_PREDICATE_SIEVE in the configuration). | |
| This may improve in future but right now there is a workaround. Closing. | |
