Could you explain which changes you mean? I didn’t edit anything. This problem only occurs if the subcategory I choose is a subcategory of the category I am looking at. If the subcategory has a different parent category, it works fine.

For example, switching from test-3 to Status, a subcategory of Team, works fine.
