Various sorting/filtering issues

[ivyivyivy]

Any assistance would be appreciated!

• Sorting by anything apart from ID seems completely broken on my saved view until I refresh the page
• Setting a Saved Filter on the Overview page shows no items

Maybe my user error?

• I don’t see a way to sort tasks on the “List” view. Am I missing something?
• Is there a way to save view settings (sort, visible columns) across browsers?

Are you talking about the table view?

@ivyivyivy

Setting a Saved Filter on the Overview page shows no items

But the filter shows items? Can you reproduce this on try?

You can sort the tasks manually via drag and drop, but other sorting mechanisms are not (yet) supported.

@ivyivyivy

Is there a way to save view settings (sort, visible columns) across browsers?

Currently, there’s no way to do that.

Yes.

But the filter shows items? Can you reproduce this on try?

Yes and yes. The Overview page shows “Nothing to do — Have a nice day!” but the filter view shows plenty of items when opened. On Safari or Firefox.

Thanks for the reply!

Yes.

Did you make sure that only the fields you want to sort by are enabled? By default, the ID field is selected and you need to unselect it first, otherwise it will always sort by that.

Yes and yes. The Overview page shows “Nothing to do — Have a nice day!” but the filter view shows plenty of items when opened. On Safari or Firefox.

There’s an issue about this already: Saved Filter on Overview Page Not Working · Issue #289 · go-vikunja/vikunja · GitHub

This is now fixed in
97e030a1fc, please check with the next unstable build (should be ready for deployment in ~45min, also on try).

The overview filter is fixed, thank you!

I did. This is still an issue for me. ID and Priority sorting works fine. Due Date does not. I’d attach a video but I don’t have permission.

Looks like this was introduced as a regression of another fix. Should now be fixed in 7b873ec31c, please check with the next unstable build (should be ready for deployment in ~45min, also on try).
