Thread Filter by AddonsLab 4.0.5

This is a bug-fix release the fixes the case of having incorrect results shown when two custom fields have identical values. As a result, the cache from the search results executed against one of the custom fields could be used when searching for the second custom field.

The default behavior of the product to search multiple values of the same custom field is to find any items which match to any of the options selected. For example, if a thread is created with the values of a custom field put as "option 1" and "option 2", and another thread is created with the same custom field having a value "option 1" only, then a user filtering the list checking both "option 1" and "option 2" in the form would see both threads in the results. With this update, we detect such cases and give users an additional selection field under the checkboxes allowing to change this behavior and find only the threads which have ALL instead of ANY selected options checked.

Also, admins are able to set if the default match type for a field should be "Match all options" or "Match any option". This can be set in add/edit field page, under the sector "Options for choice fields".

This is a stability enhancement fixing PHP errors logged in the Admin Panel in the cases when a bot or a user would intentionally supply filter values which don't exist in the choices of a multiple-choice field. The error would be generated due to the system trying to find the phrase for the option and resulting in "Undefined index..." error.

This is a bug-fix release that solves the problem of thread filter forms disappearing after XenForo upgrade or rebuilding of master data. It was caused by XenForo listeners not being available during the upgrade process, therefor customized version of field cache would be replaced with the default version, without information about filtering in it. As a result, all custom fields would disappear from the form. Now we check the cache during loading of the page to see if the information we expect is there or no. If no the cache is rebuilt immediately and the form is rendered correctly.

In this version, we have implemented a new option to control where the filter icon should appear when the off-canvas filter menu is enabled. By default, it will be added above thread list, replacing the default "Filters" link that would open the filter popup with an icon. Clicking the icon the off-canvas menu will open. Another alternative is to add the icon next to the Search and Alerts icon in the user bar.

This is a stability-fix release where we handled a rare case of errors being shown on thread page and during search indexation. The error would happen only if in case you have created a field of single-selection type, created some threads with that field, and then delete the field from admin panel and created another one with identical ID but as multiple-selection type. This case is not supported by XenForo itself and an error would be shown on thread pages "Invalid argument supplied for foreach...". The reason is that XenForo expects the value saved for the field to be an array, but it is a string as it was saved at the time when the field was a single-selection field. Our product will handle this case gracefully now, converting the value back to array in runtime, so that field value is shown properly, and can also be indexed and searched.

If you have the issue described, you should rebuild thread fields after product installation at Admin Panel -> Tools -> Rebuild Caches -> Rebuild Thread Fields, and after that rebuild search index for the content type "Thread Fields".

The release also fixes a regression in UI introduced in version 1.9.0 which cased the filter form above thread list to be shown in one column instead of two.

In this release, we have implemented the off-canvas filter menu for mobile view. If enabled, the forms in all other locations will be hidden on mobile view and a filter icon will be added next to the search icon, clicking which the filter menu will slide in from the left side. The menu supports all features of usual filter forms, like AJAX reloading, pre-populated form with current filters after page load, removing of active filters etc. The option to enable the menu is available in the product's setting page and is disabled by default.

The release also has some stability fixes reported recently.
