Sometimes it shows some old filtering with no clear indication of the fact that the filter is applied.
Maybe it is saved the filters into the local storage or cookies. But I don't see what the filter is.
Yes, this is certainly a UX thing we want to improve. Can you try pressing Clear Filters and see if that resets?
Ok thanks, closing this for now but stay tuned for some improvements in this area.
Some kind of filter is applied every time I load/refresh the page. i.e. it's not just an old filter that's too sticky.
Ok interesting - can you post a screen recording or describe in more detail then behavior you're seeing?
I was just trying to take a screen recording and am now unable to reproduce. 😅
Disregard, I might've been doing something stupid.
No problem! I do think this a UX issue the way this works but we need to find a way to improve it while maintaining backwards compatibility for the folks who rely on this.
One way could be to add a save button. Right now the filter state is saved in local storage automatically.
One issue is that when the list is filtered using one of the input boxes (e.g. API Name), the filter persists but the input box content does not.
e.g. in the below screenshot, a "c4" filter persists, but it's not clear from the UI which filter (if any) is in effect.
Yes, I think it's probably the same as what @alexey-milovidov was describing when he created the current issue (#632).
To reproduce:
- Clear Filters
- Enter something in the API Name field
- Refresh or browse to the site again
What should happen:
- filter state matching with form state
What happens:
- filter is in effect, but not visible in input field

This is an example of this not happening,
When we loop through each column on page load we can check columns in Local Storage and fill in the field.
