Add one via `extraAttributes()`, matching the pattern used by the other view actions (`advanced-tables-show-view-manager`, etc.). * Bump actions/checkout from 6 to 7 Bumps [actions/checkout](https://github.com/actions/checkout) from 6 to 7. ## June 2026 ## What's Changed * Fix standalone filter builder crashes and fallback translation config * Add a standalone config fallback for parameterized filter-builder translations when the plugin is not registered. - Route advanced filter indicator generation through the shared config helper instead of relying only on plugin state. - Cover standalone Table Builder behavior with feature tests for indicator rendering and config-driven translation access. ## What's Changed * Fix changelog * Fix brittle tests * Fix brittle preset view search test * Pin deterministic auth, matching, and non-matching user emails in PresetViewTest - Prevent defaultSearch('John') from matching Faker-generated emails unexpectedly * Fix `default()` Preset View being ignored when internal Default View is enabled On a stock install the internal Default View (injected under the `default` key) is always marked `default()` and was merged ahead of user Preset Views. Because `getDefaultPresetViewName()` returned the first view whose `isDefault()` was true, the internal Default View always won, so a Preset View explicitly marked `->default()` under another key was silently ignored on mount unless the user disabled the Default View or used the `default` key. ## May 2026 ## What's Changed * Fix empty select filter queries on integer relationship columns Fixes is\_empty / is\_not\_empty handling for text/select-style filters so non-string columns are no longer compared to an empty string. This prevents PostgreSQL errors like invalid input syntax for type bigint when filtering relationship keys such as author.id. Also adds coverage for empty/not-empty behavior across plain text, non-string, relationship, JSON, and relationship JSON filter paths. ## What's Changed * Fix advanced filters with nested json Fixes Advanced Filters when used with nested json columns. ## April 2026 ## What's Changed * Refine type hints for preset views and tenancy configuration This PR improves type safety and clarity by refining return type hints across the preset views and tenancy concerns, making the codebase more type-strict and better aligned with actual usage patterns. * Add opt-in parameterised filter builder indicator translations The legacy filter builder indicator strings are assembled by PHP-side concatenation (e.g. "\{column} \{operator} \{value} \{unit}"), which forces translators into awkward word orderings — notably French, where "il y a 5 ans" requires :value to sit inside the phrase, not after it. * Prevent badge truncation in Favorites Bar Tabs theme on mobile The badge inside a tab (e.g. count "4" in the "Today" view) could be visually clipped on narrow viewports because the label has `whitespace-nowrap` and the surrounding wrapper has `overflow-hidden`, so the badge — the only flex item without shrink protection — would lose width and get cut off by the wrapper. Add `shrink-0` to both the Filament badge component and the Github theme inline badge `
`, matching the pattern already used in `view-manager/label.blade.php`. * Bump dependabot/fetch-metadata from 3.0.0 to 3.1.0 Bumps [dependabot/fetch-metadata](https://github.com/dependabot/fetch-metadata) from 3.0.0 to 3.1.0. ## What's Changed * Fix TypeError in AdvancedFilter when filter row is missing `type` key `Arr::exists($collectedFilters, $filter['type'] ?? [])` passed `[]` to `array_key_exists()` when a row in an `advanced_filter_builder` state had no `type` key (e.g. URL-carried partial state), crashing with a TypeError on PHP 8. Using `null` as the fallback is a valid array-offset type and lets the `array_filter` guard correctly drop malformed rows. ## What's Changed * Add Heroicon type support to icon configuration methods This PR extends icon configuration methods across multiple plugin concerns to accept `Heroicon` instances in addition to strings and closures, providing more flexible icon customization options. ## What's Changed * Add empty labels array initialization to indicator setup This change adds an explicit empty labels array initialization to the indicator configuration in the AdvancedFilter's setUp method. ## What's Changed * Fix TextFilter to handle empty values in advanced filtering This PR fixes the TextFilter to properly handle empty or null values when applying advanced filters, preventing unnecessary database operations and potential errors when filtering with operators that don't require values (like `is_not_empty`). * Bump dependabot/fetch-metadata from 2.5.0 to 3.0.0 Bumps [dependabot/fetch-metadata](https://github.com/dependabot/fetch-metadata) from 2.5.0 to 3.0.0. ## March 2026 ## What's Changed * Fix case-insensitive TextFilter for contains, starts\_with, and ends\_with operators * fix advanced search loading skeleton ## What's Changed * Laravel 13 support ## What's Changed * Fix user views based off of preset views This PR fixes the creation and loading of User Views that are based off of preset views. Prior to this, using a presetView that uses `modifyQueryUsing()` as the base of a UserView wouldn't apply the presetView's modfifications. * Implement custom trigger actions This PR provides full action customization following the same pattern as Filament's [`columnManagerTriggerAction()`](https://filamentphp.com/docs/4.x/tables/columns/overview#customizing-the-column-manager-trigger-action). You can customize any action's icon, label, tooltip, color, size, and more. Icons can also be fully customized using Filament's icon registration. See the docs for more information * Update docs for privato * Feature improved quick filters This PR improves Quick Filters, making them more reliable but also adding support for Advanced Filters as well. * Feature - Advanced Table Searching Introducing Advanced Table Searching! Advanced Search replaces Filament table's search field with powerful search constraints and column selection. In addition to the default "contains" search, your users can now search using eight different constraints like "starts with", "matches", "ends with", and more. Users can also select which columns to search, and even use keyboard syntax shortcuts to quickly change the search behavior directly from the search input. Advanced Search is fully integrated with [Preset Views](#preset-views), [User Views](#user-views), and [Quick Filters](#quick-filters-new). * Update README.md * Fix advanced search with multiple columns Fixes and issue with negated searches on columns with multiple search columns. * Change search exclude syntax from `!` to `-` for Google-style familiarity Users are accustomed to using `-` to exclude terms from search engines like Google, GitHub, and Slack. This changes the exclude prefix from `!` to `-` to match that widely understood convention. * Fix PostgreSQL type mismatch in managed default views query Cast `filament_filter_sets.id` (BIGINT) to VARCHAR when comparing against `managed_default_views.view` (VARCHAR) on PostgreSQL, which enforces strict type checking and rejects cross-type column comparisons. * Fix broken translation references to missing Filament packages * Improve advanced search feature This PR majorly refactors and improves Advanced Search. Anyone using the original version will need to read the docs and possiby update any Preset View defaultSearch() or saved User Views. * Add preserve search and expand default search This PR adds `->preserveSearch()` as an option on a preset view. It also expands `defaultSearch` to allow either a normal search or advanced search to be set on a preset view. * php stan fixes * Fix default view heroicon error ## What's Changed * Fix broken translation references to missing Filament packages * Improve advanced search feature This PR majorly refactors and improves Advanced Search. Anyone using the original version will need to read the docs and possiby update any Preset View defaultSearch() or saved User Views. ## February 2026 ## What's Changed * Fix advanced search with multiple columns Fixes and issue with negated searches on columns with multiple search columns. * Change search exclude syntax from `!` to `-` for Google-style familiarity Users are accustomed to using `-` to exclude terms from search engines like Google, GitHub, and Slack.

This PR restores functionality for Table Builder and then adds a new page class for Custom Navigation Page. Now there are three options depending on which type of page you have: ## Panel Builder - [Custom Resource Page](https://filamentphp.com/docs/5.x/resources/custom-pages) => `Archilex\AdvancedTables\Livewire\PanelPage` - [Custom Page](https://filamentphp.com/docs/5.x/navigation/custom-pages) => `Archilex\AdvancedTables\Livewire\CustomPage` ## Table Builder - `Archilex\AdvancedTables\Livewire\Page` ## January 2026 ## What's Changed * Remove pest/livewire dependency ## What's Changed * Support filament enums in user view resource navigation This PR adds support to Filament v4's expanded navigation methods that now support enums such as `getNavigationGroup()` and `getNavigationIcon()`. ## What's Changed * Fix removeTableFilter error Fixes an issue when trying to remove a Query Builder table when also using Advanced Tables. ## What's Changed * Add compatibility for 4.6 * Add user view resource support for custom pages This PR adds support for custom pages in UserViews. It also fixes an issue where extending the plugins PanelPage or Page was using the imports from filament v3. * Add support for 5.1 Add support for 5.1 ## What's Changed * Add basic testing fixtures Add some basic testing * add support for filament v5 Adds support for filament v5
