**“reset filters”** will default to **status:open**  
_(which hides closed items)_ && _(which might be confusing for new users)_  
… meaning I would like my reset to: **just be blank**

& can be changed on line 11 of `app/Template/project_header/search.php`  
by changing `array('reset' => 'status:open',` to `array('reset' => '',`

Like this: from  
`<?= $this->render('app/filters_helper', array('reset' => 'status:open', 'project' => $project)) ?>`  
to  
`<?= $this->render('app/filters_helper', array('reset' => '', 'project' => $project)) ?>`

------- also ---------  
The behaviour of the other “built-in” filters can be changed in:  
`app/Template/app/filters_helper.php`
