Go to Unread etc. left-most pane selection bug

[joewiz]

Recently the keyboard shortcuts seem to have changed; "ga" (go to all unread) is now "g1" or "gu". At the same time as this change, the behavior for "Go to Unread" seems to have changed: it used to cause the left pane to select the "Unread" entry and display all unread posts in the list of entries. Now it leaves the left pane unselected and the list of entries blank (or occasionally shows one feed's entries). If this isn't a bug, I can't figure out what keyboard sequence to hit that will (1) go to unread and (2) show all unread posts in the list of entries.

Here's what I see when I hit "g1" or "gu" - notice that "Unread" is not selected:

Here's what I would expect to see - and now can only get to this by using the mouse to click on "Unread":

Hi @joewiz,

I think I understand what you are saying, but am unable to replicate the issue.

Feedbin is supposed to select Unread automatically when switching view modes and for me it does.

This is is in Firefox 29.0.1, but it's also working as expected in Chrome and Safari. What browser are you using?

1. Go to the “All” tab,
2. select a folder (tag) with no unread items,
3. press g then 1 to switch to the “Unread” tab.

Focus switches to some feed completely unrelated to the empty folder that was previously selected.

Is this what you meant as unexpected, @joewiz?

Hi @benubois,

That's right, for me, Feedbin is not selecting Unread automatically when switching view modes. In fact, I see now that instead of selecting Unread, it always selects a feed called "About oXygen XML Editor" inside my last folder/tag, "XML", as follows:

Like the steps suggested by @Zegnat, I can reproduce the issue illustrated in the screenshot above with these steps:

1. Go to the "ALL" tab
2. Select the first tag ("All") (I don't mean the ALL tab but rather the 1st tag in the list, "All"), and wait for the list of articles to appear
3. Press g then 1 to switch to the "UNREAD" tab
4. Instead of the first tag ("Unread") being selected, the "About oXygen XML Editor" feed is selected.

(FYI, the URL for this feed within Feedbin is https://feedbin.com/feeds/697179/entries.)

Happy to supply other info if needed.

@joewiz,

Thanks for the screenshot. Turns out it's related to using tags. I don't have any tags which is why I wasn't seeing the issue.

If you refresh I think it should be working now, but please reopen if you're still seeing the issue.

Beautiful, thank you, Ben!
