Changelog – October 27, 2025
๐ Critical Bug Fix
Order Type Filtering System Fixed
- Problem Identified: Order type filtering on orders page was not working correctly
- Filters showed no results even when matching orders existed
- Found 9 orders (4 pending, 5 invoiced) missing
order_type_idvalues - LEFT JOIN to
order_typestable returned NULL for orders without type assignment - Filter query looking for
ot.slug = 'print-on-demand'couldn’t match NULL values
Solution Implemented
- Bulk Order Type Assignment: Ran
scripts/assign-order-types.jsto fix missing order types - Analyzed line items for each order to determine correct type
- Successfully assigned types to all 9 orders:
- 1 print-on-demand order (#5480)
- 7 raffle-sticker orders
- 1 pod-raffle order (mixed POD + raffle sticker)
- Database Verification: Confirmed all orders now have order_type_id populated
- 0 orders remaining without order types
- Filtering now works correctly for all order type combinations
System Verification
- Automatic Assignment Confirmed: Verified that new orders automatically get order types assigned
- Both Shopify orders and manual orders call
assignOrderType()on creation - Future orders will not experience this issue
- Filter Testing: Confirmed filtering by “Pending” + “Print-on-demand” now correctly shows order #5480
๐ Investigation & Analysis
Database Query Analysis
- SQL Filter Logic: Examined order filtering logic in
/api/ordersroute - Filter correctly implemented using
ot.slug = $Nparameter - Issue was missing data, not broken code
- Order Type Structure: Reviewed order_types table and relationships
- Migration 027 added order_type_id to mama_tried_orders
- Order types: print-on-demand, inventory, raffle-sticker, pod-raffle, mixed, external
Root Cause
- Missing Migration: Some orders created before or during migration didn’t get order types assigned
- Gaps in Automatic Assignment: While auto-assignment exists, some orders slipped through
- Data Integrity: No mechanism to detect or alert on missing order types
๐ฏ Technical Details
