Field filter copies value used in different question

Bug reports
1

I have 2 custom questions, both using the same table. Both of them have a Field filter using the same date column. Everything works fine, but whenever I open one question, change the default setting of the Field filter, return to the collection both questions are in, open the other question, that Field filter is not on its default value, but on the value I changed the other field filter to.

The defalt value of the Field filter is no selection, so all dates. I get the error when changing it to ‘Previous 1 Day’, including today.

Hi @beau
A lot has changed since that very old version (I haven’t tried your steps, so don’t know if that is fixed)
Latest release is 0.35.3

Here’s how to upgrade on Heroku (make sure you have backups first!):

You should migrate away from H2 as the application database:

Hi @flamber,

Thank you for your swift reply!

I am indeed running an older version, as our database crashed when I upgraded a while ago, so downgraded to maintain productivity. This might however be the moment to upgrade to the latest version.

Thanks again.
