[bug]: Display filter Show sub-issues doesn't filter newly created sub-issues

[Plorenzo]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• [X] I have searched the existing issues

Current behavior

When the display filter Show sub-issues is not selected, I expect sub-issues to not appear in the board, but if you create a new sub-issue while this filter is off, the sub-issue appears in the board anyway.

Steps to reproduce

https://github.com/makeplane/plane/assets/4695692/cdd75322-66b9-40d2-bfd2-b43c57d21dfc

deselect Show sub-issues display filter create parent issue open it and create sub-issue see sub-issue appear on backlog, despite filter off if you turn on and off the filter it goes away. it should go away from the start

Thanks for flagging this, @Plorenzo. This looks like a bug related to a mutation issue. We will fix this in our next release.

Hi @Plorenzo, this is the intended behaviour when creating a new issue, as it can confuse the user about whether the sub-issue is created or not. We will work on handling this scenario more gracefully in our upcoming releases.

I can confirm, this is still happening - which I know you guys said it is intended behavior. However, when creating a sub-issue in the parent issue, and I can see that the sub-issues are created. But when I close that parent issue and see the list of all issues, the sub-issues still exist until I toggle the show sub-issues checkbox.

Hi @graywolf336 Yes, the sub-issue remains visible on the board until the page is refreshed or the "Show sub-issues" checkbox is toggled. This behaviour is intentional added, as some users were confused when newly created sub-issues did not appear immediately on the board. We are working towards a more refined solution to enhance the user experience.
