Issue counts change after clicking the "project settings" drop down

We are using SonarQube Developer Edition 10.7 (deployed on a dedicated server via .ZIP) and seeing a somewhat strange issue. Initially when selecting a project and navigating to the issues tab we see a certain number of issues reported that is below what we expect. On this same tab, clicking the “project settings” drop down seems to update the page, increasing the issue count to what we expect.

For example here is the count when initially opening the screen:

We then click the project settings drop down (without changing or selecting anything!) and the count updates:

This is quite bizarre and we are trying to figure out what could be causing this. I did also make a screen recording of the phenomenon, but I don’t think it will reveal any further information. Has anyone else experienced this behavior?

Hey Alex!

A screen recording would be great. I just tried to reproduce this on my 10.7 instance and can’t do so.

That being said I do find it weird that when I click on “Project Settings” it resets all my filters (why would that make sense? it’s not opening a new page.), so I’m going to flag this for attention.

Thanks for trying to verify!

Ignore the sloppy censorship job, but here is the behavior I’m seeing. Looks similar to your filters resetting, though I don’t believe I have any filters set:

Hey Alex!

Thank you for the report, I was able to reproduce it and can confirm that it is definitely a bug. I created a ticket and pinged the corresponding team about that.

In case you are curious about what is even happening, the bug makes the Project Setting button indeed reset the filters, and we have a default filter (only Open and Confirmed issues), and by clicking on this Project Settings button, the filter is reset to nothing, so you see all issues, including False Positives, Fixed, and Accepted.

Anyway, we are on it.

Best regard,
Viktor
