Description
I'm having trouble using the exposed filters in a fused view to search. I've got the two views fused together working fine in showing the content it should show.
The exposed filters on the parent view works great.
However when I use the exposed filters to search through the child view it comes back broken. It claims it can't find the search items even though they are there in the child view.
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening and what I might be doing wrong. Or is this just a glitch in Views Fusion?
Thanks

which filters are you using? there are some filters that don't work correctly with views_fusion

Hi, I put together a sample throw away site with the problem. You can
access it at dev.fireworkersunite.com .
I sent you a private contact with login information so feel free to mess about in search of the problem.
I have two views, Trucks (products) and Destination, Trucks is the parent
view. I've fused them together and can use the parent filters but not the
child filters. I'm not using anything fancy in this example. In my other
development site I was using the location module for searching. I tried it
without the location module with the same results.
I just updated CCK and Views and Fusion and instead of getting empty text
it just doesn't filter the Destination field - oddly enough sort now works
on the child field.
Good luck and thanks.

indeed, I can reproduce the problem on my own test site too. It seems like every filter of the child view stopped working - I tried it with the latest views 1.6 beta. (yeah just another incompatibility... (cck-views :D))
Unfortunately I'm quite busy currently, so I don't know when I have to time to have a look at it. For the meanwhile you could try to get it working with an older views version - if you get it working with an older version please post which version worked for you.
For sure it was working in the past..

this problem occurs with views 1.6.

Thanks for tracking it down, it's been a good lesson on not playing with views in beta format, I'm just please that I'm not insane despite what the voices keep telling me :)
