Grouping documents by custom fields does not take effect

[liaham]

Hi,
When I select a custom field in the options on top of the documents list in order to group by this field then no grouping takes place.

You can easily reproduce the issue by these steps:

1. Start Redmine with postgres as database.
2. Create a DMS custom field (in my case it was a list field) and mark the checkbox 'Used as a filter'.
3. Navigate into a project with DMS module enabled, upload some files and select a list value for each.
4. Select the DMS custom field in order to group by its values.
5. Observe that nothing happend.

This is my environment:

Environment:
  Redmine version                5.0.4.stable
  Ruby version                   2.7.7-p221 (2022-11-24) [x86_64-linux-musl]
  Rails version                  6.1.7
  Environment                    development
  Database adapter               PostgreSQL
  Mailer queue                   ActiveJob::QueueAdapters::AsyncAdapter
  Mailer delivery                smtp
Redmine settings:
  Redmine theme                  Default
SCM:
  Subversion                     1.14.2
  Mercurial                      6.1.1
  Git                            2.36.3
  Filesystem                     
Redmine plugins:
  advanced_plugin_helper         0.3.0
  redmine_dmsf                   3.0.7

Let me know if you need further information to reproduce the issue.

Best Regards,
Liane

The feature if grouping hasn't been implemented yet. The error is that the option is available in the user interface.

I have disabled Group by in the Options. Let's leave its implementation as a feature request.

Okay, I understand. That's fine by me. Thank you!
