No results in Metadata Overview with filters

Problem

I have a metadata field configured of type multiselect and one or more of the field options include one of these punctuation marks: ], [, ?, /, :, &

When I search for metadata using CQL filters (e.g. in the Confluence search or the Metadata Overview macro) and I select one of the above field options, there are no pages shown. However, I know that at least one page should be found.

Solution

There is a bug in our add-on: METADATA-611 - Getting issue details... STATUS

Workaround
  • Use the expert filter criteria instead of CQL filters or
  • Edit your metadata field options so they do not include any of the above characters. (We generally recommend using only letters and numbers.)
