Thank you for this however the issue is that staff are not clearing filters. This then affects the next user and so on.
I need it to be done for them. Some staff are not coping well with this transition and are not IT literate no matter how many times they are supported.

- You should tell your fellow teachers and students when they choose filters choose the option "apply only to me". This will not affect other users.
OK. Will they still need to clear their filters when they have finished adding data?
Thank you so much. Its a total headache for a large school staff.
- No they don't. Just warn them to apply the filters ONLY to them when they choose the filters. (a pop up message will apear asking if they want to apply the filters only to them or to all users).
