SUMMARY Color and pick filters seem not to work. Filtering on all other fields (e.g. rating, file format, text tags etc.) works flawlessly. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Mark an image with a color tag, e.g. "orange". 2. Activate color filter to show only images with tag "orange". OBSERVED RESULT The tagged image has an orange frame (as expected) but all other thumbnails are also still visible (unexpected) when the color filter is activated. EXPECTED RESULT Only the appropriately tagged thumbnails according to the filter setting should be shown and the message at the bottom of the window should show that the filter was applied. SOFTWARE VERSIONS This was tested on Debian stable with the AppImage versions 8.2.0 and 8.3.0 as well as with a self-compiled 8.3.0. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I have also switched between sqlite and MariaDB as databases to exclude these as a source of this behaviour. The filtering on the color or pick tags used to work as expected with an older version of digikam.
I cannot reproduce the problem here, neither with the current AppImage (Qt5) nor with my native developer version (Qt6). I have no idea at the moment what could be causing this. Please create a debug log from start to setting a filter from the digiKam debug messages in the terminal. Maybe we can see a possible cause in the log. https://www.digikam.org/contribute/ Maik
Created attachment 168237 [details] Screenshot of the situation Thanks for the quick response! I will generate a log as requested. This is a screenshot of the UI showing the problem I am facing.
Created attachment 168238 [details] Debug log The debug.log attachment was created in the following way: 1. export QT_LOGGING_RULES="digikam*=true" 2. /usr/bin/digikam > /tmp/debug.log 2>&1 & 3. digikam opened with the test album from the screenshot 4. the "orange" filter was toggled twice - no output in the log 5. changed album (to see any log output) and toggled filter 6. returned to the album from the screenshot 7. toggle "orange" filter several times 8. quit digikam

Created attachment 168249 [details] Debug log with digiKam-8.4.0-20240407T113137-x86-64-debug.appimage Thanks for the quick turnaround and sorry for the delay on my side. I downloaded digiKam-8.4.0-20240407T113137-x86-64-debug.appimage and conducted the test like before. The result is unchanged.

Same result also in the locally compiled version: color filter is still not working.

Ok, I missed this message in the log: AlbumManager::scanTAlbums[0m: Failed to find parent tag for tag "_Digikam_Internal_Tags_" with pid -1 We can't really fix this with digiKam, it's best to start with a new database. Alternatively, you can send me your database as a ZIP file and I will repair it. Maik

I would not be afraid of doing that myself. Any pointers what this would involve?
Created attachment 168260 [details] tagstable.png Install the sqlitebrowser, open the digikam4.db. Look at the screenshot, this is what it should look like, the "_Digikam_Internal_Tags_" is actually usually the first entry in the DB with the id == 1 and the pid == 0. In your case the pid should be != 0, probably -1. Change the pid again or take a screenshot. Also check whether the "_Digikam_Internal_Tags_" is not present twice. Maik
Thanks! I'll give it a try.
> Install the sqlitebrowser, open the digikam4.db. Correcting the pid of "_Digikam_Internal_Tags_" indeed solved the problem. It was at -1 before. Thanks a lot!
Summary: the failure of the color/pick filters was due to an inconsistency in the "Tags" table of the SQL database.
