Coleman, that sounds great. How does it look like on the front side? How does one choose the operator? Is there a drop-down or a tooltip to say which operators can be used (= > < ...)? I'll test as soon as possible in the next coming hours/day./

@allinappliadmin on the front-end form it shows the operator dropdown attached to the left of the input, like this: (screenshot from the demo site):

(probably a very odd question): is there a way to apply this patch quickly to the 10 files? Would it be 'git apply'?

[colemanw]

@allinappliadmin you can download any patch from GitHub by adding .diff to the end of the url: https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/26496.diff

And then you can apply it locally like

cd path/to/civicrm
wget https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/26496.diff
patch < p1 26496.diff

Do I also need to apply this patch? I'm on version 5.62.0? Patching has been a mess. Is it on the demo?

[colemanw]

@allinappliadmin here is a link to the demo site: http://core-26496-401x0.test-1.civicrm.org:8001/civicrm/test1

[allinappliadmin]

it works perfectly as expected. It will be of a great help.

[allinappliadmin]

on which version is it on prod? 5.64?

[colemanw]

Thanks for the review @allinappliadmin. Yes it will be in 5.64.

@colemanw Looks like a regression from this one, issue here.
