I’ve got a job board, and I’m trying to get the board to show all jobs when there are no filters selected in the multi-dropdowns. If you choose a filter, the board filters correctly. But if there are no filters, the board is empty right now.
“ignore constraints if empty” on the RG’s source doesn’t seem to work. I think it’s because of the way my data is structured:
Appreciate the help. been stuck on this for days. tried changing states, and doing a whole bunch of crazy workarounds but I feel there must be a simple answer here.
Hey there, @ch.kr.lee… I use a very similar setup to filter a repeating group in a couple of my apps, and I don’t have a problem getting all of the records to display when no filters are selected. The only difference between our setups is you are using a multidropdown and I am not, but I can’t imagine why that would matter.
I notice you have some conditions on your repeating group. I’m sure they have nothing to do with it, but any chance one of them is causing a conflict?
I’ve noticed the same thing when using multidropdowns to filter. My standard workaround is to create a duplicate repeating group that excludes the multidropdown item in the filters. Then I set conditions on each RG—the first one shows if the multidropdown’s item count is >=1, and the second shows if the multidropdown’s item count is 0.
The result of “Do a Search for…” is ALWAYS a list. (Lists can have zero items, but the list always exists. A search that turns up no items is a list of length (count) zero.)
