Filter bug in v2.23.0 (was in all previous also)

Clicking the hamburger menu and selecting advance filters does not allow you to filter on the OS or OS version or Platform. It only allows "Any" as a choice and should let you specify. We use the OS version and need to sort bugs based on those fields.

I was not able to reproduce using the given information.

Are you able to provide step by step instructions how to reproduce starting from a fresh installation?

1. click hamburger menu in upper right screen when in [View Issues]
2. select Advanced Filters (if not already selected)
3. click on either OS or PLATFORM or PS VERSION headings to select a value to sort on
4. they are not populated, only show "Any" and you cannot put a specific value in

Most likely those fields should be auto-populated when the field opens from the mouse click to display all available entries that have been entered in any bugs in the system. Shouldn't they be in a separate database column by themselves?

You did not provide and I am still not able to reproduce.

But let's start with this, as I assume it' not related to advanced filters, but a general issue how profiles are implemented in Mantis.

Does it mean it works when using simple filters?

No it doesn't work in simple filters either but we only use the advanced so didn't think to try it in simple.

As far as from the very beginning of a fresh install, I create a new directory and copy the new files into it. Then I copy over the config file from the config directory. Finally I copy over the missing plugins we run. Which is why a more specific question such as "did you overwrite the previous version files or start from a fresh directory?" would have made more sense.

I guess it isn't technically a "bug" but missing code in the filters section of the program.

I assume you don't use stored profiles ("My Account" > "Profiles", or "Manage" > "Profiles").
Right?

Correct.

That explains it.
The filter fields contain just the values of stored profiles.

Feel free to create a report at https://mantisbt.org/bugs for it.

Thanks. Would you consider this a feature request or a valid bug then?
