Missing filter checkbox values on v5.7.2/v6.0.1 on Joomla 5.4.5

User Alex King 2026-05-25 19:13:35

Hi - we have recently upgraded our Joomla installation to version 5.4.5 and as a pre-requisite to that, we updated List Manager to 6.0.1. We noticed however that where we had filters with checkboxes, the values of the checkboxes were being omitted so all we see is a series of checkboxes with no associated text against the choices (I checked the html and the values are missing from the html). We went back to List Manager v5.7.2 and still had the same problem so we've reverted to List Manager v5.4.2 and it is working correctly again.

Could you advise on how to resolve? We'll need to move to a later version at some point so would be good to know what we need to do in advance.

Hi,
per your description, it seems the filter is not able to find the 'labels' of the options anymore, in between those versions there were some changes regarding filters solving some specific cases our users reported, but maybe there is still any case to be checked. Can you please confirm which the type of the field you're creating the filter for? (and, if you have changed this type after inserting data at the table). We'll try to reproduce here and let you know how to fix.

Thanks, regards

Hi,
thanks for the data. We tried here and still not able to reproduce, can you please confirm which is the column type you chose for this field at the list configuration? (Fields/columns->Main->Type). And also if you have added (manually or using any sql query) the possible values at the tab 'Data/values'.
Alternatively, you can share an access so we'll check all the field configuration and replicate it here.


Thanks for your feedback,
best regards

It is Text - I notice that we don't have it visible in the table - would that affect things? Nothing is actually selected in the Display tab. We want to be able to filter it but it's not necessary to see the field in the table.

Hi,
ok, we finally found the origin of the issue. Please try with the latest version now, and let us know if you still have any issue with the filter.

Thanks, regards
