[Bug] Backpack 7.x multiple filtering issues

[visata]

1. Click on the filter "Simple", then click "Remove Filters", then click on "Simple" again. It doesn't filter anymore.

2. If you apply any filter, expand button (+ sign) won't expand the data. The same happens if you go from page 1 to page 2.

3. When you use the switch from editable-columns along with expanded button on the same row.

When I change the switch to off, it renders this (+ sign is gone, switch jumps to the first column):

Please note I'm on editable-columns:3.0.2, so it might have been fixed in the later version but I think it's the CRUD repo issue?

Here’s what I found in the knowledge sources regarding the issues you described with Backpack 7.x:

1. "Simple" Filter Stops Working After Remove Filters

There are several historical issues with filters not resetting or not behaving as expected after using the "Remove filters" button. For example, in earlier versions, the "Remove filters" button sometimes failed to clear the filter state properly, causing filters to appear active or not work on subsequent clicks. Fixes for similar issues were implemented in previous versions (see this issue), but there is no explicit mention of this exact bug in Backpack 7.x in the provided sources. Therefore, I cannot confirm if this is a new or known issue in 7.x, or if a fix is pending.

2. Expand Button (+) Not Working After Filtering or Pagination

There are reports of issues where the expand button (details row) does not work correctly after certain actions, such as filtering or changing pages. This is often related to how DataTables redraws the table and loses event bindings or state. However, the knowledge sources do not provide a direct fix or confirmation for this specific bug in Backpack 7.x.

3. Editable Columns Switch Interferes with Expand Button

This issue is directly addressed in the changelog for the Editable Columns add-on. In version 3.0.10 (released 23-Jul-2024), there is a fix for "details row and bulk actions positioning," which likely addresses the problem where toggling the switch causes the expand button (+) to disappear or move incorrectly. You are currently on version 3.0.2, so upgrading to at least 3.0.10 should resolve this particular issue:

3.0.10 23-Jul-2024

• fix details row and bulk actions positioning (@pxpm)
  Editable Columns Changelog

Summary

• The editable-columns switch and expand button issue is fixed in editable-columns v3.0.10. Upgrading should resolve it.
• The "Simple" filter and expand button issues after filtering or pagination are not explicitly addressed in the knowledge sources for Backpack 7.x, so I cannot confirm a fix or workaround for those at this time.

If you continue to experience these issues after upgrading, it may be worth opening a new issue in the Backpack repository with detailed reproduction steps.

Do you have any plans on fixing it? Or Laravel 7.x is low priority for you?

Is this project dead? Should have gone with Laravel Filament.
