| Summary | 0016429: By using "Advanced Filters" as default filter in config_inc.php the field "Hide Status" is shown anyway. | ||||
| Description | On accessing the page "View issues", the field "Hide Status" is initially shown. After a click on "Apply filter" the field becomes hidden until the filter is reset. The field "Hide Status" should never be displayed if the setting is like described below. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Set $g_view_filters = ADVANCED_ONLY; in config_inc.php | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

If I'm not mistaken, the filter api retrieves the filter view type (i.e. simple vs advanced) from the current filter. This means that if you had a 'simple' saved filter, then this would temporarily override your $g_view_filters = ADVANCED_ONLY preference. If you're using a temporary filter then try to reset your filter and redefine it. Saved filters should be likewise updated to make them "advanced". |
 |
That won't solve my case. Because it happens not only by logging in as a specific user. It also happens when using the anonymous login as shown in the screenshot. And this user isn't allowed to save filters. As already mentioned the field "Hide Status" is initially shown and by pressing "Reset". After the first click on "Apply filter" the field becomes hidden until the filter gets reset again. |

After some research, it turns out this was a known issue which should be fixed in future version of Mantis, see 0006497. I will therefore close this as duplicate. |
