Why don't links work from CiviCase Dashboard to filter by case type?
This is fixed in newer versions

//find the code change here.. every time you click on dashboard link, in the CRM/Case/Form/Search.php file line number368,369, its hard coded to 1. it needs to be $caseTpe(which is getting the actual case type value)

 $this-&gt;_formValues['case_type_id'][$caseType] = 1;
  $this-&gt;_defaults['case_type_id'][$caseType] = 1;


change the above lines to use $caseType variable:

  $this-&gt;_formValues['case_type_id'][$caseType] = $caseType;
  $this-&gt;_defaults['case_type_id'][$caseType] = $caseType;


hope this helps some one
