The new dashboard page always used the views tabbar defined on the container ignoring the user preferences. And the path j:when to detect the myviews property was comparing against the view class and not the owner so that always evaluated to false

Testing done

  1. Install Favorite View plugin
  2. In user preferences select Favorite View for Default Views Tab Bar
  3. Create a second view and mark that as favorite (with old dashboard enabled)
  4. enable new dashboard page

Screenshots (UI changes only)

With Favorite View plugin installed, selected in user preferences and one view marked as favorite, global configuration set to default views tabbar

Proposed changelog entries

  • Use correct views tabbar in new dashboard page respecting user preferences

Proposed changelog category

/label bug,web-ui

Proposed upgrade guidelines

N/A

Submitter checklist

  • The issue, if it exists, is well-described.
  • The changelog entries and upgrade guidelines are appropriate for the audience affected by the change (users or developers, depending on the change) and are in the imperative mood (see examples). Fill in the Proposed upgrade guidelines section only if there are breaking changes or changes that may require extra steps from users during upgrade.
  • There is automated testing or an explanation as to why this change has no tests.
  • New public classes, fields, and methods are annotated with @Restricted or have @since TODO Javadocs, as appropriate.
  • New deprecations are annotated with @Deprecated(since = "TODO") or @Deprecated(forRemoval = true, since = "TODO"), if applicable.
  • UI changes do not introduce regressions when enforcing the current default rules of Content Security Policy Plugin. In particular, new or substantially changed JavaScript is not defined inline and does not call eval to ease future introduction of Content Security Policy (CSP) directives (see documentation).
  • For dependency updates, there are links to external changelogs and, if possible, full differentials.
  • For new APIs and extension points, there is a link to at least one consumer.

Desired reviewers

@jenkinsci/sig-ux

Before the changes are marked as ready-for-merge:

Maintainer checklist

  • There are at least two (2) approvals for the pull request and no outstanding requests for change.
  • Conversations in the pull request are over, or it is explicit that a reviewer is not blocking the change.
  • Changelog entries in the pull request title and/or Proposed changelog entries are accurate, human-readable, and in the imperative mood.
  • Proper changelog labels are set so that the changelog can be generated automatically.
  • If the change needs additional upgrade steps from users, the upgrade-guide-needed label is set and there is a Proposed upgrade guidelines section in the pull request title (see example).
  • If it would make sense to backport the change to LTS, be a Bug or Improvement, and either the issue or pull request must be labeled as lts-candidate to be considered.

That condition was always false as it compared the view class instead of the owner class

Two real bugs fixed and confirmed working via before/after screenshots: the condition was comparing the wrong object's class (view vs. view.owner), and the two tabbar references in the branches were swapped. The fix is correct; the main gap is that the PR description only describes the condition bug, leaving the branch swap unexplained.
