Questions about Forum login / Tab count includes inactive items

Bug One - When I am logging into Manager forum. I put in my username and password and press enter on my keyboard. For some reason this logs me in, but now also brings up the google login which I don’t want or need to use. I am using Windows 7 and Firefox.

This sounds like an issue with the forum software (Discourse): https://www.discourse.org/

Bug section seems to be here, maybe you can report the issue to them to fix? https://meta.discourse.org/c/bug

Bug Two - may not be classified as a bug, but I think it should be. Comparing the latest version to a release prior to 01 Aug 2017 Removed ‘inactive’ button and show inactive items at the bottom in gray instead (see topic)

It sounds like you’re talking about the change that was introduced in Manager 17.7.50:

@lubos

I have decided to get rid of Show invisible button altogether.

The latest version (17.7.50) will show all inactive items (e.g. customers, suppliers, employees, inventory items etc.) in light gray color at the bottom. So they will be out of view but not completely hidden.

I agree that the count of active items is more valuable information than the count of active+inactive. But I’m not sure changing the number on the tab is the best approach, that could cause some confusion?
