SOLVED: Bug with update columns list plugin

[juuser]

Hi,

There seems to be a strange bug in update cols list plugin. I have a couple of user selectable elements for update and all the dropdown elements are missing one item from options. It seems to be the "last" element in dropdown when list would be sorted alphabetically.

E.g my dropdown element values are:
No
Yes
No Need

And the option "Yes" is missing.

I had Fabrik version 3.9, now updated update_cols plugin from Github, but still the same problem

Updatecol user select "uses" the advanced search features.
If your elements are also filter elements it's showing the filter options.

So if your dropdown element is set to "Filter data" = recorded data (in element List view settings/Filters) and you don't have a record with "Yes" it won't show "Yes" in the dropdown.

Thanks Troester for a quick reply! Didn't think of that.

Will have to change the filter options for these elements. Although it would be nice if it would use "all data" option, because when updating column to some values, not necessarily all the options already exist there. Of course there might be some good reason for that behavior for some other scenarios.
