Actually it is nowhere written the 'ID' for a quick filter should work. After investigating, I realize that it
worked previously "by accident". I added in meantime some test so there is a warning for quick filter attributes
which do not exist, and that's what you got. I loosened this test for 'ID' now in the current SVN version, so it
can be used. It does however not display the single entry you want, but a page containing that entry (which then
is displayed in bold). If you want exactly one entry, just add it's ID to the URL, like

https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/65767

for your previous entry.

Thanks Stefan!

The default subtext "-- Text --" for quick filter is included when another attribute is selected. So that the searched category always shows 0 entrie

I cannot find this problem on your demo forum, but it is happening on my server.

My config:

Quick filter = Author, Category, SubText

 Result: Please see the screenshot attached.

It's fixed already, that's why you cannot see it on the demo server. So just download elog270-2.exe and install it.

I've checked for this forum logbook, and pressing "enter" while having focus in the quickfilter text field does initiate the search. Does it work for you with this logbook?

With all of our instances of Elog where we have Quick Filters enabled, any filter that we input characters into does not search the server when we press enter (there is no "Search" button). Interestingly, it will only search when we click anywhere on a blank area of the Elog interface. Is that the intended procedure for searching?

Yes it works fine in this forum. Interesting that when I open my problem instance from latest Chrome it works fine but not IE 11. I'll dig into browser settings and post back when I have more info.

Yes it works fine in this forum. I also discovered my problem is resolved using Chrome. I'll dig into browser and let you know when I find something.

Found the problem. I needed to turn on Compatibility View in IE for the site. Regards.

Richard Stamper wrote:

When there are two or more Quick Filters available, and one of them is on the Subtext attribute, once one of the other filters has its value changed the null text for the Subtext selection criterion (namely, "-- Text  --") is used as a genuine selection criterion, thus typically preventing any entries from matching. 

This is for v2.7.0-1961 with both Mozilla 2.0.0.9 and IE 6 on Windows XP Professional SP2, and I think has appeared with this release.  You can demonstrate the behaviour on this forum: 

  • Go to http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/
  • Quick filter on dates in the "Last Month" and nothing is listed.  The URL is now http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/?last=31&Subtext=--+Text+--
  • Set the date filter back to "-- All Entries --" and the spurious subtext filter remains; the URL is now http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/?Subtext=--+Text+--
  • Delete the "-- Text --" value in the filter box and everything reappears; the URL is back to http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/

Thanks for reporting this. I fixed it in revision 1964. You can test it in this forum.
