Symphony.

I’m dealing with this really frustrating little bug in my Issue Tracker right now and it has me at my wits end.

So I’ve got a datasource set up for the Issues. It has a bunch of URL parameters set up so that you can further sort the Issues once you’re on the page. The one in question is {$url-status} I’m pretty sure this was working at some point, but has stopped working now for all values except “open”. If I go to http://my-url.com/issues/?status=resolved then I get a 404 error!

I do not have “Redirect to 404 page when no results are found” checked in my datasource, nor do I have a “Required URL Parameter” set up.

The field is a normal Select Box with “Open, Resolved” set up. I have even tried deleting the field and recreating it and I still get the error.

Can anyone please help me or give me some suggestions on where else to look?

EDIT: I did change the values of the Select Box awhile ago from “Open, Closed” to “Open, Resolved, Postponed” but I also updated all of issues that currently exist!

I’ve heard of issues like this with Select Box’s before.

The way I try to avoid things like this is to use a Select Box Link instead. Why not create a small section with only a Text Input field for the Status’ and use a Select Box Link to get the values instead? That way any future changes to the status list won’t need so much work to update entries.

Doing it this way also links the fields by ID, which in any case would be the preferred method of doing it.

I’m not suggesting it will definitely solve the problem, but it just might ;o)
