Parent status link bugs - No2 "Parent lost all their kids"
LangNerd23 opened this issue · 7 comments
Description
There is a special situation I encounter sometimes, that destroys some of my data, more specifically all children loose their connection to the parent.
(Maybe related to „parent status link bugs – No1“ that I had posted before)
To Reproduce
- Choose a term that has no parent yet (and has status 1)
- Go into edit mode
- Choose a parent from drop down list; choose a term as parent that has already a couple of children with all of them with status_linked yes (in my case these were usually words I had as WellKnown, but probably doesn’t matter)
- After having picked the new parent the box status_link had been automatically checked
- Unselect the checkbox
- Save
- Got to term overview and search for the selected parent term; all kids will show up with a different status now (mostly status 1); once they are opened, „link to parent“ is unchecked
A variation of this error has been observed when deleting a non-linked parent from a term. Also in that moment it had happened that the parent lost its other kids.
Extra software info, if not already included in the Description:
- OS: Windows
- Browser: Checked both with Chrome and Firefox
- How you've installed Lute (Docker, python, source): via pip, Version 3.3.2 (couldn’t check with 3.3.3 for the reasons given on discord)
Thanks very much! Will try to reproduce.
Attempt 1: Unable to reproduce, on chrome:
"when" is parent to "the" and "form", "pops" doesn't have a parent yet.
Added "when" as parent to "pops", unchecked the box. On save, everything that was linked before still is.
I'll try again with setting the child statuses to well-known.
Attempt 2, not able to reproduce:
"these" is parent of the other terms next to it, all well-known, the last term is status 1, added "these" parent, deselected checkbox, just before save:
After save, everything is as expected: previously linked still linked, new child isn't linked:
Confirmed the other case, "deleting a non-linked parent from a term", unlinks the other child terms.
he term "blue" above has non-linked parent "these", will delete the parent "these" from "blue". "words" and "are" are both linked to parent "these". Pre-delete is the same as above diagram.
Removing parent from "blue", about to save:
parent term "these" unlinked from both "words" and "are":
This was also consistently reproduced: I set up the same terms and did the same things, and the other parent links were broken again.
Working on a fix. Repeated the above scenario: unlinked parent "these" removed from term "blue", and the other terms that had that parent maintained the existing link:
Fix merged into develop, will be in next launch.
Hi @LangNerd23 -- I believe that this has been fixed with the launch of 3.4.3 (just now). I'll close this issue -- please re-open a new one if you run into more problems with this, and reference this if needed. Cheers and thanks!
