    My filters are gone? I used to be able to go my directory listings and filter the list by state / city.
    Now those filter options are gone?
    Remind me again, if you would, what were the IMPROVEMENTS that happened in this update that over shadow the incredible inconvenience of it all?

    The update is optional, and you can roll back if you are more comfortable with V1. It will be supported for many more months with maintenance and security updates.

    I used to be able to go my directory listings and filter the list by state / city.

    Do you mean the ‘location switcher’?

    Hello Alex
    I’m curious about the answer to Derek Browns question too. It seems the option to Filter a CPT by Country, Region and City is no longer available in the backend.

    Is there a box that needs to be ticked or is this filter no longer available in V2?

    Thanks

    Thank you Michael! I was getting too angry with this upgrade to respond. I try my best to stay professional as I know how difficult these projects can be. When an update comes, the instinct is to install the update. bigger, badder, better, more secure – right? This was a downgrade as far I am concerned. And contrary as supports answer, there is no way back from an upgrade that completely rebuilds your database. Uuugh.

    Hey Derek…sure sorry to hear that the V2 upgrade has become such a frustration for you! For me, the upgrade wasn’t as easy as I had hoped it would be, but I’ll admit that I had a lot of customizations, so I guess it is what it is 🙂 I agree with your statement that there’s no way back. In the long run, I think V2 will be better, but sometimes those major changes can be a real pain in the ***, it can seem like starting over again 🙁

    I’m hoping Alex has a positive comment regarding the admin cpt filter!

    Best of luck to ya Derek!

    Thanks Michael and back atcha. In the long run, gotta blame myself. I should of used the ol All In One Migration and made a backup. That way, I could have seen the destruction, installed the backup, then installed a dev site elsewhere for the upgrade and “rebuilt” and put everything back together. Lesson Learned.

    The backend filters are being worked on, i don’t think they will make them in the next release but likely the one after that.

    Thanks,

    Thanks Stiofan for the update. It will be helpful to have that filter available again!
