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?
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?

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...:-(

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!
