Question

Filter in the frameless TOC works different to "responsive HTML5!?

Hello,

I'm using the latest RH 2019 version and testing the frameless skin. I'm using the conditional tags pretty much. Unfortunatly I have to tag the complete TOC, too, right? Why isn't that inherited from the topics? But thats just a side question...

When I generate my project as a responsive HTML5, the TOC is getting filtered correctly. When I'm creating a frameless output out of the same project with the equivalent presets, the TOC filtering is different. I have to groups for filters: Plattform ("online" and "on premises") and Role ("Admin", "Configurator", "View",...). In the responsive output the filter groups are AND connected. Is it possible that in the frameless TOC they are OR connected? Is that configurable?

 

I hope you understand what I mean and maybe someone knows a solution for it?

Thank you and regards

Felix

Still nothing so I think something has gone wrong. I have never known WeTransfer take this long.

 

Please check the email address you used (don't post it here).

WeTransfer is being unusually slow. Hopefully it will be here by the morning.

Sometimes they are a bit slow relaying it on. They will let you know they have advised me and when I have downloaded it. I expect it will be in the next few hours.

When I referred to outputs I meant the same content from the same project but one using the frameless skin and one using the responsive skin.

 

In the test I did I set it to allow multiple selections in a group. You are not allowing that so we were looking at different things.

 

See the Contact page on my site and send the test project as instructed there. Do make sure you include a link to this thread and please do not email the project direct. It will be easier if we are working off the same project.

Probably it was a missunderstanding - I need it working for dynamic filters, not for different outputs.

I also created a test project were you can see the behaviour:

The titles shows, how the topics are tagged.

For example, how can it be that "config_online" is displayed although the filter "Print" is set. The topics "online" and "Configurator" are hidden, as expected. This looks to me, that the the filters are OR connected. I think "config_online" is displayed, because it is tagged with "Configurator" - the Plattform-tag doesn't have any effect on it.

These topics are contained in the project and output:

In the responsive output, the content filtering works, but in the toc the same behaviour (thats why I asked for the tagging in the toc):

You don't need to apply the filters to the TOC. All that does is exclude the topic from the TOC, not from the build. The TOC should change as you apply the filters.

 

I just created a four topic project with four tags (2 groups of 2).

 

In the outputs (responsive and frameless) they both work the same way. You only see in TOC the topics relevant to each of the four options. Select one filter and I see one topic. Select two and I see two topics. The grouping does not and never has affected the filtering.
