EDIT

Problems with the widget have been reported for the Internet Explorer

"Anmerkung zum Portal im Internet Explorer: das Durchklicken durch die TDWG-Hierarchie ist für normale Nutzer nicht zumutbar. Eine Vorschlagsliste der vorhandenen Einträge z.B. GERMANY wäre nutzbarer…

In FireFox funktioniert die Auswahl der TDWG-Einträge gut, aber auch da funktioniert die Suche nicht.

Viele Grüße,

please review if this problem can be reproduced. Create a new bug report ticket if the problem persists.

Firefox: I tested the checklist function (taxon = *) as well assearch with genus name for several TDWG units with the Cichorieae Portal and it worked fine. But: (1) I see a problem for users with the two lists of WaterbodyOrCountry and TDWGArea: it is frustrating if you check a WaterbodyOrCountry unit while entries in the Portal are only for TDWG, and your search thus remains without results. (2) I would prefer previous choises of area units be removed when you start a new search, Now you must actively remove them (enter the name again to get the unit displayed anduncheck the unit).

IE: Yes, it seems that an entry in the area filter has no effect for the display of the area list. But the search worked fine in the cases I tested with the Cichorieae Portal-

The widget always only offers areas which are actually used for Distributions. So this is must a problem in the data as long as the description/namedAreasInUse web service is working as expected. The offending Distribution belongs to the taxon Cichorium intybus L. subsp. intybus sec. "Edit WP6 - Cichorieae", . 2006 with the uuid @cb5ef875-c731-4800-bca5-74f379419291@. Could you clean this up?

(2) I would prefer previous choises of area units be removed when you start a new search, Now you must actively remove them (enter the name again to get the unit displayed and uncheck the unit).

Agreed! I created a subticket (#5071) in which I suggested a possible solution

Could you give a specific example?

I have cleaned the entry and as you expected WaterbodyOrCountry is not available anymore for selection. Great.

IE: No matter what I enter in the filter field, e.g. Brazil, the preselection vanishes and nothing happens. If I check the box for an item after having scrolled for it, it is selected, e.g. Hawaii, and if I then enter "Haw" the filter narrows the selection to the preselected Hawaii.

ist womöglich noch/schon auf Eurer Agenda (da wir die Diskussion bereits vor ein paar Wochen hatten), aber für Zypern funktioniert die Area-Auswahl auch noch nicht. Habe gerade mit Norbert als Zeuge getestet (Firefox). Beispiel: Marsilea*, die nur in Division 4 vorkommt.

Schönen Gruß

Die Auswahl funktioniert wohl, es gibt aber bei der Suche ein Problem das schon bekannt und hinreichend beschrieben ist:
