It's nice to be able to group several workflow states into one filter with Views' grouping options. This also allows to show a chosen filter label instead of the (often unusable) state name(s). (Under Filter type, select Grouped filters instead of Single filter)

Here's a patch that changes the views filter to work with grouping.

Please give me the steps to reproduce and test this.

Views' filter dialog60.65 KB

Basically it's :

  • Add at least two workflow states (I have 3 workflows with multiple states, each with a kind of published, rejected and draft state)
  • Create a view with an exposed filter on workflow state
  • As I don't want multiple similar states in my dropdown, I added a grouped filter that combines them in one entry for published etc.

Currently this gives a query error since the grouped filter is an array instead of a single value in the filter handler.
I added a screenshot of a dummy view's filter dialog to show the exact settings.
