BZ935: Find can fail when posting changes query criteria
Category

Bug
The Problem

On a view with these conditions:

  1. The view is restricted by a query
  2. The query relies on a value from another relation
  3. The view has a post attached that targets that relation
  4. A record is entered or replaced, causing the value in the other relation that is used by the query to change

If all of these conditions are met, Find First, Next, etc. can fail to find the correct records.
Workaround

None.
Scope

This bug has existed in all Helix products since posting was introduced up to and including Helix 6.0.1.
Status

This bug is fixed in Helix 6.1.
