About the search issue discussed in yesterday's demo, here's a proposal. I want to hear your thoughts and if it's OK to include it in this PR: Accent-insensitive search (

Limits worth stating up front
SEARCH_CONFIGis per-backend, not per-model, so this changes every Wagtail search on the site and the reindex covers everything.- Autocomplete is unaffected. modelsearch hardcodes
autocomplete_config = "simple"to disable stemming, andSEARCH_CONFIGdoes not reach it, so admin page search stays accent-sensitive. unaccentfolds Latin scripts from a fixed rules file. It does not transliterate Cyrillic, Greek or CJK, and extending the rules is not possible on managed Postgres.- Folding merges genuinely distinct words:
résuméandresumebecome one lexeme. Noise-level for this site, but a real narrowing of the index.

While not opposed to this change, I think there is a larger discussion to be had on intent for the V3 soft launch overlap. My understanding was the intent was to run the Entry and Page flows in parallel for comparison, but if that isn't necessary this is a good call.

Hi @ycanales ! I've tested this and found the core feature work great, however I have a couple of requests that I'd love to hear your thoughts:
1/ On Figma, there's a new filter option for "Hot Posts", which is essential posts ranked by views. This is similar to how the "Posts from the Boost Community" card on Homepage & Community page are currently working. Can we add that filter option here as well?
Also, it seems like the new filter buttons on Figma looks a bit shorter than our current implementation. Seems like the design was updated at some point but I'm not sure if it was intentional 🤔. @henryajisegiri Would you mind helping us confirm this design change?
2/ Currently for the search input field, we have to hit "Enter" or click the arrow button to trigger the search; whereas on the Libraries page and the Algolia search modal, we have search debounce. Should we consider supporting that here? 🤔 To be fair, I've not noticed now that "What are you trying to find?" card on Homepage is also missing the debounce feature so this is just a nice-to-have I think. (cc @henryajisegiri – please let us know if you have a preference here)
3/ On the Post item, I think we've lost the "Blogpost" -> "Blog" mapping. Would you mind adding it back?

I think we should flag this to the team so that we can come back and improve this filtering once we settle on the username conversations and use that for author filtering on this Post page as well, instead of using index number. Also there's no design for setting ?author= query currently (cc @henryajisegiri )

The page-tree fixture was local to test_commands.py. Register pages.tests.fixtures so the feed tests can reuse it, and add the two pieces they need on top: a default Site (pytest runs with --no-migrations, so Wagtail's initial data never exists and page.url returns None without one) and a PostPage factory. The factory indexes each page explicitly because indexing is queued with transaction.on_commit, which never runs under the django_db fixture.
…o the posts feed The feed rendered posts and post type pills, but the search box sat outside the form and the library dropdown was fed a context variable no view set, so neither did anything. The pills navigated with window.location.assign, discarding every other query parameter, and zero results rendered nothing at all. Search, pills, library and author are now one GET form writing to ?q=, ?type=, ?library= and ?author=, parsed and validated by PostFeedFilters. Filters run as plain queryset filters and, when a term is present, are handed to Wagtail search through a pk subquery: the backend rejects StreamField lookups outright and tag lookups without a FilterField, and returns SearchResults rather than a queryset. PostPage gains search_fields covering body text, summary, post type, tags and author name; body text is stripped of markup so a search for "p" does not match every rich text post. Zero results render an empty state, plus up to three posts from the selected library with the search term dropped. Submitting the form drops ?page=, which is what resets pagination. The header nav now points at the Wagtail feed. EntryListView keeps serving legacy Entry rows on the v2 template rather than sharing a context contract with it. Existing posts need ./manage.py update_index once per environment before they are searchable.
The dropdown dispatches field-change while setting `selected`, before Alpine has written it to the hidden input the form submits, so choosing a library submitted an empty `library=` and the feed came back unfiltered. Defer the submit a tick. Also pass the request to the nav's feed-page lookup: without it Page.url falls back to a fully qualified URL once a second Site exists, so the nav rendered an absolute href where every other link is a path. Both found by the E2E spec, neither visible to the view tests.
The v3 UI now has a single entry point for the feed. `EntryListView` and its
five type subclasses redirect to the PostIndexPage URL while the flag is
active, mapping each subclass's `filter_value` onto `?type=` so an inbound
link to /news/video/ arrives filtered.
The redirect is temporary rather than permanent, because the flag can be
switched back off and a cached 301 would strand v2 visitors on a 404. It is
skipped when no PostIndexPage exists, where `posts_feed_url` falls back to
this view's own URL and redirecting would loop.
`header_context` also exposes `posts_feed_url` as its own context key, so the
homepage's "View all posts" CTA resolves the feed the same way the header nav
does. It previously hardcoded {% url 'news' %}, sending v3 visitors to the
legacy list while the working feed sat unlinked.
With the flag off nothing changes: the legacy lists render as before and the
new feed stays 404.
Anchor the two assertions that could not fail: the library dropdown check now matches the option value together with the selected attribute and the Alpine seed, and the search check is scoped to the search input rather than to a page that already contains the term as a library slug. Move the feed header wording and precedence cases onto PostFeedFilters, which is where the property lives, and keep only the escaping case over HTTP. Drop the tests that duplicated a stronger assertion, exercised no feed logic, or stood in for browser behaviour, fold the out-of-range page into the unresolvable-values parametrize, narrow the logged out card to the copy this template owns, move the nav test to module level, and add a searched variant of the query count guard so the prefetches are covered on the pk-subquery path too.
The form-level Enter handler ran on every key press that bubbled up to it, so opening the dropdown or picking an option submitted the form instead. Skip the handler when the event comes from inside the dropdown, which binds Enter itself for both. Enter elsewhere still submits, which is what lets a user clear a search: the search field's own submit button is disabled while the box is empty, so implicit submission does nothing there.
Selecting a library submits the form, so the control the user was on is destroyed with the document and focus falls back to the body. Park the field name in sessionStorage and restore focus on the way back in. Not a query param: the URL gets shared and copied, and a cold visit to such a link should not have focus pulled off the page heading. Submit synchronously while here. field-change fires as the dropdown sets its own state, before Alpine has written the value to the hidden input the form serialises, which is why the submit was deferred a tick. Reading the value off the event removes the wait. The tick was not free: it is scheduled off Alpine's reactivity queue, and a submit parked behind one could sit unflushed until the next interaction happened to drain it, leaving a click on an option looking like it did nothing.
Arrowing from All to Blogs submits the form, so the pill the user had just landed on was destroyed with the document and focus fell back to the body, ending the keyboard run. Reuse the dropdown's mechanism: park the field name, then focus the checked radio on the way back in. Two things the pills need that the dropdown did not. Their ring hangs off :focus-visible, and that heuristic starts fresh in the new document, so a restored pill would hold focus with nothing on screen to show it, and the radio itself is visually hidden. Record whether the change came from the keyboard, and only then mark the pill for a matching rule in post-filter.css. A mouse user does not get an outline they never had. Also switch the component to $root. $el is whichever element Alpine is evaluating, so once these methods were called from a handler on a descendant it resolved to the filter div, and requestSubmit threw after the marker had already been stored.
Searching submits the form, so the box the user had just typed into went with the document and refining a term meant reaching for it again. Cover both ways it submits: Enter now routes through the same path the other controls use, and the arrow button is caught by a delegated click, since it is rendered by the field include and cannot be bound directly. That one only records, leaving the browser to submit as it already did. Split the recording out of submitFrom so the button can use it without submitting twice. Put the caret after the term as well, so a refinement carries on from the end instead of in front of what was typed. Enter keeps naming its own control rather than assuming the search box, so pressing it on a pill still comes back to that pill, and pressing it somewhere unnamed submits without recording, as before.
The feed was reachable only at the Wagtail index page's own URL, which every environment names for itself, so nothing in code could link to it without a lookup and the nav highlight had to hardcode one slug. Put it on the news route instead, the way every other v3 page in the site swaps templates behind the flag: off renders the legacy Entry list, on renders the feed over the PostPage tree. The per-type lists forward to it filtered, and where no index page has been created yet the legacy list stays rather than an empty page. Drops the nav path entry, the header lookup and the homepage CTA rewiring, all of which existed only to name the other URL.

Django filter pk with integer larger than 2147483647 PostgreSQL DataError value out of range
💡 Result:
The error "DataError: integer out of range" in Django with PostgreSQL typically occurs when a value exceeds the 32-bit signed integer limit of 2,147,483,647 [1][2][3]. In Django projects, this commonly happens because older models defaulted to AutoField (which maps to a 32-bit integer in PostgreSQL) rather than BigAutoField (a 64-bit bigint) [1][3][4]. To resolve or prevent this issue, you must address both the database column type and its associated sequence [3]. How to Resolve the Issue 1. Update the Model For new tables or when modifying existing ones, ensure you use BigAutoField [5][4]. You can set this globally in your project settings: # settings.py DEFAULT_AUTO_FIELD = 'django.db.models.BigAutoField' If you need to convert an existing table's primary key, explicitly define the field in your model: id = models.BigAutoField(primary_key=True) 2. Migrate the Database Changing the field in the Django model is often insufficient on its own because the underlying PostgreSQL column and sequence may remain as 32-bit types [6][3]. You generally need to perform a migration that: Alters the database column type to BIGINT [1][3]. Alters the associated sequence to BIGINT [1][3]. Example SQL for a manual fix: ALTER TABLE my_table ALTER COLUMN id TYPE BIGINT; ALTER SEQUENCE my_table_id_seq AS BIGINT; Note: Be cautious with migrations on large production tables, as altering column types can be a heavy operation [1][7]. Always backup your data before performing such migrations. Additional Considerations Arithmetic Overflows: If you encounter this error during queryset filtering (e.g., using F expressions), it may be because an arithmetic operation is overflowing a 32-bit integer before being cast to a wider type [8]. In such cases, use ExpressionWrapper combined with Cast to ensure the database handles the calculation as a BigIntegerField [8]. Monitoring: You can monitor sequences to check how close they are to the 2.1 billion limit to avoid unexpected production outages [9]. Since Django 3.2, BigAutoField has been the default for new projects, which prevents this issue for most modern Django applications [4].

Django 6.0 IntegerField get_prep_value int PostgreSQL exact lookup oversized integer parameter psycopg DataError integer out of range
💡 Result:
The DataError: integer out of range in Django when using PostgreSQL typically occurs because a value being sent to the database exceeds the limits of the PostgreSQL integer type (32-bit signed integer), which ranges from -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 [1][2]. This error is generated by the database driver (psycopg) when it detects that the data provided cannot fit into the column type defined in the PostgreSQL schema [3][4]. Common causes and solutions include: 1. Exceeding IntegerField capacity: If your data genuinely exceeds the 32-bit integer range, you must use a BigIntegerField in your Django model [5][1]. After changing the model field, you must run migrations to update the database schema [5][6]. 2. Sequence overflow: If you are encountering this error on an AutoField (the default primary key), your sequence may have exceeded the maximum value for an integer [7]. You can check this by querying the sequence value in PostgreSQL [7]. The solution is to migrate the column and the underlying sequence to BIGINT [8][7]. 3. Annotated queries: When performing arithmetic on fields in annotations, the intermediate result might exceed the integer limit before being cast [9]. Use ExpressionWrapper with an explicit output_field=BigIntegerField or use Cast to ensure the database performs the calculation using 64-bit integers [9]. 4. Incorrect field usage: Ensure that you are not using an IntegerField where a larger type is required. While Django includes MinValueValidator and MaxValueValidator, these are primarily for form validation and may not always prevent invalid data from reaching the database layer in all scenarios [1][2]. To debug which value is causing the error, you can enable DEBUG logging for django.db in your settings to inspect the raw SQL and parameters being sent to PostgreSQL [4].

site:github.com/django/django django 6.0 IntegerField get_prep_value return int(value) lookups PostgreSQL
💡 Result:
In Django 6.0, the IntegerField.get_prep_value method is designed to prepare a value for database operations by converting it into an integer. The implementation typically involves calling super.get_prep_value(value) and then casting the result to an int [1][2][3]. Specifically, if the value is None, it returns None; otherwise, it returns int(value) [1][2][3]. When working with PostgreSQL, this prepared value is passed to the database backend. Django's PostgreSQL backend uses the database driver (typically psycopg) to map Django's IntegerField to the appropriate PostgreSQL integer type (e.g., int4 or bigint) [4]. Because get_prep_value ensures the Python value is an integer before it reaches the backend, PostgreSQL receives a native integer type, ensuring that lookups are performed efficiently and correctly according to database integer semantics [1][4]. There have been no fundamental changes to the core logic of IntegerField.get_prep_value in Django 6.0 [5][6]. Recent updates related to integer fields have focused on areas such as standardizing field descriptions [7] and improving how integer fields behave in complex ORM expressions, such as fixing division precision issues when interacting with decimal constants [8].

Bound the author value before the primary-key query.
users.User uses a 32-bit AutoField primary key. An arbitrarily long digit string passes isdigit() and can cause PostgreSQL to raise an integer-range error during filter(pk=value), returning HTTP 500 instead of None. Parse the value safely and reject values outside the field range before querying.

Do not expose the illustration alt text twice.
Both theme variants stay in the DOM. If the hidden variant is not display:none, a screen reader announces the same description twice. The illustration repeats information already carried by the message text, so mark both images decorative.

Issue: #2378
Summary & Context
Makes the posts feed's controls actually work: search, the library filter, a header that reflects the filter state, URL-driven state, an empty state, and a user card wired to real data.
