fix: #3628164 Podcast views repeat episodes and inflate counts on multilingual sites

Rajab Natshahrequested to merge
issue/varbase_podcasts_base-3628164:3628164-podcast-views-multilingual into 1.0.x

Issue: https://www.drupal.org/project/varbase_podcasts_base/issues/3628164

Two changes in config/:

  • views.view.podcast_episodes.yml, display more_by_podcast: stop inheriting the default filters and query (defaults.filters: false, defaults.query: false) and set its own: the three default filters (type, langcode, status), a langcode filter on the field_podcast relationship and one on reverse__node__field_podcast (interface language, und, zxx), and a distinct query.
  • views.view.podcasts.yml: the Episodes count on the reverse__node__field_podcast relationship aggregates as count_distinct instead of count.

Why: both relationships join every translation of the related node, and only the base table was filtered by language, so the rail repeated an episode and the cards counted each episode once per translation (19 episodes read as 76).

Verified by applying the same configuration through config actions on a fresh Rightup 1.0 build with an Arabic translation, in English and Arabic: the block showed three different episodes (before: the same episode twice) and the cards read 19, 10 and 8 episodes (before: 76 and 40 were observed). The YAML in this MR was parsed but not applied from the MR branch, and no recipe install or Behat run was done with it.

GitLab CI: the merge request pipeline finished green. Not verified: a monolingual site (should be unchanged, since every row is in one language) and the other displays of these views.
