fix(projects): preserve all filters in the URL - #170
Merged
Conversation
Make project kind, search, group, award category, video-only, and layout state derive from query parameters so filtered views survive navigation and can be shared. Carry the complete query string through project links and back navigation, while retaining the debounced search request behavior and the stored layout preference as the default when no URL override exists. Cover restoration from a fully filtered URL and preservation across project and idea navigation.
Preserve the complete URL-backed project filter state while incorporating the closed-submission help-label behavior from master. Project cards now receive both the visibility flag and the full detail-navigation query string.

Use the URL search parameter directly for project requests so browser back and forward navigation updates results immediately. Keep typing debounced by delaying query-string writes from the local input, and synchronize the input whenever navigation supplies a different URL value. Add regression coverage that navigates from a searched URL to an unfiltered URL and verifies both the request and input update without waiting for the typing debounce.

Track debounced query-string writes separately from external URL navigation so an internal normalized search update does not overwrite the active input. This keeps trailing spaces intact when users pause between words while retaining immediate synchronization for browser navigation. Extend search coverage to pause after a trailing space, verify the input remains unchanged, and then continue typing the complete query.

The projects archive now treats URL query parameters as the source of truth for project/idea selection, search, group, award category, video-only filtering, and grid/list view. Opening a project from results, personal projects, the award roll, or ballot picks—and then returning—restores the same filtered view, making those views bookmarkable and shareable.
Project-only filters remain in the URL while ideas are selected so switching back to projects restores them, but they are not applied to idea requests. Search still debounces data fetching while replacing the in-progress URL state, and the stored layout preference remains the fallback when the URL does not specify a view.
