Shopify update, changes to the "constraint" parameter

Store Design
1

My developer added the advanced filters to the theme.

He uses the “constraint” constraint parameter to send the custom filter

For example

  1. Send request https://shella-demo.myshopify.com/collections/womens?constraint=custom-filter+price=0-79000

  2. Parse the custom-filter+price=0-79000 to get a custom filter, price from 0 USD to 790 USD in this example

  3. Get all products from the collection using the following liquid code

collections[collection.handle].products
  1. Apply custom filter to the first 1000 products from the collection.

It works fine for 2+ years until Jul 30.

I believe the Shopify release the update and the code is not working anymore.

Now the collections[collection.handle].products code doesn’t return all products (up to 1000 products).

Now it returns the filtered collection by constraint=tags

Can somebody from Shopify look into this issue and give more information about the Shopify update?

Is there a workaround?

UPDATE.

If I open a Shopify admin in the next browser tab, this fixes the issue.
