Is there a way to make the Backdrop CMS menu systems accepting links like /downloads?fcat=all? I also tried a workaround using the redirect module, forcing /download to riderict to downloads?fcat=all... did anyone solve a similar problem lately?

Glad it works for you! Regarding selecting options, I've just tested the Views Autocomplete Filters module and got it working after I had a look at the README and made sure to use the same...
Can't filter content in a View

Hi geoma, I think your views filter doesn't work because technically it's not searching for the name of the comuna / county but for a number (i.e. the node id of the referenced content item)....

Such links should actually work. I've tested it with this path on a test site:
admin/content/node?status=All&type=newsletterAh, wait, your examples start with a slash. That might be the problem.
Mmmh, I just added the slash manually... for whatever reason;-)
Probably you're used to it from Drupal 8 or 9 :-) Does it work without?
Mmmh, so this works for your installation? Might be my custom menu script...:-(
I can't say if specifically that path works, because I don't have such a page to test it. That's why I tested
admin/content/node?status=All&type=newsletter. Have you tested such a link on your site? To do so, go to the Manage content page, filter the view, copy the path from the address bar, and paste it in the path field of a menu item.With your download link, what exactly isn't working? Do you get a error message when saving the menu item?
your link outputs as admin/content/node in frontend (cutting the
?status=All&type=newsletter)Maybe I better try with a base theme first...
This is really strange. Works perfectly on my site. Hope you find the reason!
