Closed#468: Cannot filter entries by an author name (Author field)
Nice spot, added in this commit
This issue is closed.
I used the Author field and expected to be able to filter by username (which is essentially the handle of the author):
But this filter didn’t work. Looking at the code it seems that the filter only ever acts on the
author_id
!regexp
or otherwise. Should it be expanded so that it can filter on the author name too?
