Hello All
I will keep this quite abstract as I believe (hope) this is a general problem with easy work-around. I have modified a gii generated admin page as followed. The search form is modified to select records pertaining to a given user. This works, and when searching the grid updates fine.
I have customized the output of the grid to contain various user related data, for example each record reflecting some user data.
When I use the grid filters (to the top of the widget) the filter results fine, however I lose the original filter of the user.
So, I query the user and it selects some some results and when I want to filter these results on some other criteria it produces the results generated from the entire dataset, rather than the user-filtered results.
A side note, I have tried installing http://www.yiiframework.com/extension/remember-filters-gridview/
This actually produces some result, as when I filter as specified above it does not work, but when I refresh the page, the results are exactly as desired as it has saved both filters from the previous session.
Hope this is clear, And please help! Thank you
