I got into a state where quick filter bar is filtering on body, but body is unchecked. specifically, subject was enabled and body was not.

workaround - check body, then uncheck it.  search correctly changes to not search body

I don't know how I got in this state.

unclear yet if this is caused by IagoSRL's unified search addon

Hi Wayne,

When you have this problem, are you using the Unified Search widget bar to check/uncheck the body filter?

If you have the standard Quick Filter Bar hidden, in the extension options there is a checkbox to show it again (uncheck 'disable and hide quick filter bar..'). Can you try to confirm the bug using only the standard Quick Filter Bar? And with the extension disabled?

Something that can be happen is that Unified Search have unchecked the 'body filter', while QFB have it checked (that means a but in Unified Search).

Note: Because Unified Search is only about UI, there is no filtering being doing from the widget, just it does is synchronize their options with the QFB and this last do the filtering work.

Thanks a lot!

yes.

will try. but since i've only seen this once and don't have clear STR, I have doubts about being able to reproduce.

interesting. however that shouldn't explain my problem. because i did 
"check body, then uncheck it." and it it stopped filtering body. which means before I made the change, the  backend should have thought that I had body unchecked.
