Summary of Changes
The category manager has links to the published, unpublished, archived, trashed articles
The (max) level filter is wrong , it should be 1
thus limiting to the category itself, without including article in subcategories
Instead the (max) level filter is the level of the category
(The wrong) result is that
if category is at level e.g. 2 then we will include
- articles of category
- articles of sub-categories up to 2 levels
Testing Instructions
In categories manager, click on article manager links (on some non-top level category) , e.g. published articles
(Note only top-level categories have non-bogus links)
Expected result
Only articles of the category should be should be shown
Actual result
Articles in sub-categories are shown
Documentation Changes Required
None
Note: use J3.7.5 or J3.8.0 + PR #18179,
- this because category filter + level filter is not working in J3.8.0,
thus this bug is hidden in J3.8.0

The issue does has no effect in top level categories since their level is 1
in e.g. a category of level 3, click on published item links
look at the loaded URL
administrator/index.php?option=com_content&filter[category_id]=241&filter[published]=1&filter[level]=3
you see filter[level]=3
aka bug !!
the above means show me items in category no 241 and in sub-categories up to 3 level down
wrong !!
