Maintenance of field categories behaves strangely

Stefan Hall shared this problem 14 months ago
Defect Logged

I want to maintain field categories and the admin area is hard to use. I have created a short video with the following actions:

1 create a new category 'AAA' - OK.
2 Change name from 'AAA' > 'BBB' - ???
- an empty dialog is displayed, I'm missing the current content 'AAA
- after saving the category is displayed empty
3 only the click on the X (delete) activates the changed text

This is surely not wanted like this, right? Version is 9.8.0.1

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for taking the time to test Yellowfin. I wasn't able to replicate this behaviour in my instance of Yellowfin, editing Field Folders in the Administration Console.

I tested in 9.8.1 and 9.7.0.2. Additionally, when editing the folder name, the existing name appears in the text field:

b24ce0e861b03e484afa4763cc20fb39

I tested this in Microsoft Edge version 108 and Yellowfin is running on Java 11.0.13 and Tomcat 9.0.68.

Can I ask that you ensure your browser is up to date and then try again in a private tab or with cookies and cache cleared.

Kind regards,

Chris

Hi Chris,

this is certainly due to our system-wide language setting. "German" is the only language we need. That's why we have it set centrally.
Please try again with the following setting in the repository

INSERT INTO Configuration VALUES (1, 'SYSTEM', 'OVERRIDE_LANGUAGE', 'en');
I think then you will see the same misbehavior.

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for letting me know. I was able to replicate the behaviour by using your statement, but with 'de' rather than 'en'.

I'll change this to a defect and inform the developer team.

Kind regards,

Chris
