filter_category_id not working when creating an admin menu link to only list articles of a certain category #44305

Steps to reproduce the issue

Create a menu item in the admin area to only list articles of a certain category chosen in the filter tab which results in a link like this: index.php?option=com_content&view=articles&filter_category_id=1

Expected result

A list of articles from only the chosen category.

Actual result

A list of all articles unfiltered.

System information (as much as possible)

Joomla 5.2.0 fresh install, upgraded from latest J4.

Additional comments

If I use the filter options in the article listing everything works fine. But when it should filter from a filter provided via URL nothing changes. The set filter from the article list does not change, no matter which URL I use to change the listing.

Please try administrator/index.php?option=com_content&view=articles&filter[category_id]=1

Thank you, this is working as expected.

But: That should be the case when creating a link through the menu item's interface. Now I would have to manually enter every link as a system link and provide the ID of each category by hand. Since the site has around 30 categories whose articles need to be edited by the user, I would have to create 30 system links by hand entering each category ID by hand as well.

It would be great if the filter option could be fixed to create a functional link again.

Thank you again for the quick solution so we can keep working on the project.

Ah I see what you mean now.

I can confirm that the the links generated by Joomla when creating an admin menu item do not work correctly any more.
