Title: Automation favorite: Old Favorite entries in list of Favorites to choose from.
Post by: ubacher on November 25, 2021, 10:07:25 AM
Automation favorite: adding a Favorite to be executed:

The list of available Favorites contains many entries from the past. I have 21 entries under the APP tab but I get
58 Favorites listed (under APP). See screenshot which shows part of the entries - many duplicates also.

Do you show all favorite tabs? Maybe some favs not visible currently because they are in groups you have hidden?

Hidden tabs have none of the entries shown, and, if so they would have to show with the
tab name in front.

Well, then I would need your database in my lab for further analysis.  If you say these favs don't exist and the database diagnosis does not find anything unusual, something must have broken in the favorite storage in the database. No idea, really. I don't remember any similar problem report.

Are only favorites using apps affected? Do these apps still exist?

I created a pared down database which shows the problem.
I am sending it to the support email address.

It has only one favorite - yet when you create an automation favorite which adds
a favorite two entries show up.

Hope this will allow tracking this down.
