removing columns in tables distorts filter and categories #94

Closed prustar closed 7 years ago

prustar commented 7 years ago

@acorbi @Huyeng -- I tried to manipulate the columns again to remove the document type from the laws table and it defaulted then to document number:

Please note that I've restored the column because categorising by document no. doesn't make sense.

@prustar the tabular pages have a configuration setting that allows editors to specify the index of the column by which the rows are grouped by. It is called group data column , please read instructions on https://wiki.opendevelopmentmekong.net/partners:tabular_pages#creating_and_configuring_a_tabular_pages

@prustar can we now close this?

prustar commented 7 years ago

@acorbi but I didn't change that? I simply removed the column, so what I expected was for just the column for Document type to be removed. Everything else should have remained the same.

acorbi commented 7 years ago

@prustar if the index of the document type (2) is specified on the group data column and you remove that column, then the next column document number (index 2 after you remove document type) will be used for grouping the entries, this is the expected behaviour.

hence, if a column gets removed, the configuration should be adapted accordingly.

I'm closing this Issue.
