Add an 'All' checkbox to the `Show hacks` for releases search

[Ryan J Ollos]

Selecting Any Release on the trac-hacks.org start page, I presume would list all plug-ins and macros on the site. However, try searching for the SmallSearchMacro with only Any Release selected (after applying update) (1).

Second, check only the 0.10 checkbox, update the page, and search again (2). I get a result only in the later case.

The SmallSearchMacro is tagged with 0.10.

• (1) ​http://trac-hacks.org/?release=anyrelease&update_th_filter=Update
• (2) ​http://trac-hacks.org/?release=0.10&update_th_filter=Update

I see now what I was confused about. I assumed Any Release == All Releases. So, I'll change this from defect to enhancement and request the following: It would be nice to have an All check box for Show hacks for releases:.

Sometime I would like to search all plug-ins on the site because even if a plug-in is not currently compatible with the Trac release I am running, perhaps it could be modified.

Also, I have found several cases were a plug-in was not tagged correctly. It may be supported under a version it is not tagged with, or it may not contain any version tags at all. I have seen both cases more than once.

Now that I understand how the filters work, I think this request does not make much sense, so I'm going to close to. However, please see #6167.
