Bitbucket Server - Filter repository vs Filter repository by name?

[Per Velander]

Hi,

We have multiple projects on bitbucket server and the repository filter is different between the projects. In one project the search field states "Filter repository" while the other states "Filter repository by name".

When using the "Filter repository by name" filter, the full name of the repository has to be specified to be able to find the repo. We have tousands of repositories which can be under different domains which sometimes makes it hard for us knowing the full name of the repository.

I wonder why there is a difference between the searches, and what I can do to make all projects have the "Filter repository" search rather than the "Filter repository by name" ?

Turns out this was related to the plugin:

and not having any categories specified on the repository.

Consider this solved.
