Collection bug in version 16?

Hi. I am trying to view children in a list view in Umbraco 16 but after setting the collection I still see the children in the tree view. I can see a collection icon on the page in the tree, but it still lists its children below.

Is this a known bug in version 16?

This happen after a usync import from version 13 where it worked as expected. I created a couple of fresh doc types to see if it was related to my usync import, but I still can’t get it to work as expected.

Any ideas?

It’s by design to list in the tree and in the dashboard.. (you should be seeing a load more in the tree)

Discussion here too…

But I see no nodes in the dashboard, only in the tree. And I can’t sort them by for example create date or similar. Only manual sort is possible. And with thousands of news it is not feasible to load more until the editor reaches the last created node.

In the dashboard we only see a pagination. No items. Clicking the pagination changes nothing in the tree view.

Ah sorry, read it as you weren’t expecting the list to show in the tree..

Have you tried removing and re-adding the collection view?

With @mistyn8, I’ve seen some List Views not getting propertly converted. Usually it’s nothing major and it can be easily recreated.

Yes multiple times. I can also add that the items come from a uSync import from Umbraco 13. Maybe something is missing after import? The content was also before that migrated from Umbraco 8 via uSync migrations.

have you tried creating a brand new datatype collection/list, and setting that?
Incase the core datatype has an issue?

I’m thinking that it’s an issue when the uSync data type file doesn’t have the collectionViewPath configuration. Read more about it here:

Interesting. It sounds like a way forward. I will check if it is doable to change all the usync files before import, otherwise I might just upgrade the temporary Umbraco installation from 13 and then uSync the files to its final destination. Thanks!

I have not tried that, but I will give it a shot :slight_smile:

Hey, it actually worked! Thank you so much! :folded_hands:t2:
