Describe the issue or problem
When more than 5 sections have been defined for a journal, the “Filters” section of the “Submissions” dashboard page shows a textbox for the “Sections” filter. Yet, when text is entered into that textbox field, nothing happens. I would expect an Ajax request to be triggered (as is happening with the “Issues” filter), but instead no calls are being triggered for “Sections”.
Steps I took leading up to the issue
Go to Submissions
Click on Filters
Scroll down to Sections
Enter text
Nothing happens, no autocomplete suggestions are being shown
I would expect the same for the textbox offered for the “Sections” filter. Yet, entering text in that search box doesn’t trigger any HTTP request whatsoever.
Interesting … do you see any error in your PHP error log? That might provide more clues.
And you say you’re version is OJS 3.4.0, but do you know the specific build that you are using (typically it would be 3.4.0-1, or 3.4.0-3 [the most current as of this moment] - can you please verify?
Sorry, perhaps the formatting was off: I meant OJS 3.4.0-3. I’ve checked, but nothing is logged. It seems that just nothing is being triggered by that “Sections” filter textbox.
(Don’t know if this adds anything, but changing the request that’s being triggered by the “Issues” filter textbox to http://myjournal/index.php/test/api/v1/sections?searchPhrase=test&_=1695999602021 (and variants) all produce an api.404.endpointNotFound error. But the existence of an analogous “sections” endpoint may just be a wrong assumption by me.)
It does help - yes - but I’ve referred your question to some other members of our team, who haven’t yet had the opportunity to respond - hopefully you’ll hear from them soon.
Bumping this. I have just discovered the same issue while trying to help Eds with de-cluttering their Active Submissions tab. Filter by Assigned to Editor and Issue work, just not the Section.
3.4.0.4
